Background: The evaluation for the deworming programmes or anthelmintic mass drug administration (MDA) had not been done in the Kusan Hilir subdistrict, Tanah Bumbu Regency, South Borneo Province, Indonesia.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of anthelmintic MDA helminthiasis in Tanah Bumbu Regency.
Methods: This mixed-method research used an observational cross-sectional approach, with descriptive and bivariate analysis for quantitative data and thematic content for qualitative data.
Results: From 623 samples, 23(3.69%) subjects had helminth infection with an overall prevalence below the standard(<10%). There were 64.8% of respondents who agreed that taking deworming drugs prevents helminthiasis. In-depth interviews with the managers of the deworming programme in Tanah Bumbu Regency showed that MDA, health promotion, and surveillance or monitoring of helminthiasis were implemented based on Regulation of the Indonesian Ministry of Health (MoH) Number 15/2017.
Conclusion: The implementation of the anthelmintic MDA programme in Tanah Bumbu Regency was successful.
