Bisnis.com, JAKARTA — Healthcare stocks are currently outperforming the broader market, with the IDX Healthcare index (IDXHealth) hitting a record high. On Tuesday (19/8/2025), IDXHealth closed at an all-time high of 1,709, marking a 17.4% year to date (YtD) gain. This performance outpaced the Jakarta Composite Index (IHSG), which has risen 11.06% YtD.
Analysts attribute the sector’s rally to multiple catalysts, including the government’s commitment to a sizable healthcare budget allocation in the 2026 Draft State Budget (RAPBN), as well as persistent medical inflation.
