Beyond Emergency Response: From Event-Based Regulations to System Based Regulation in The Governance of Post Disaster Health Crisis Management in Aceh

The historical development of disaster management law in Indonesia reveals a strong tendency toward the enactment of regulations as reactive responses to crisis events (event-based regulation). This pattern has proven ineffective in ensuring the sustainable management of post-disaster health crises, as reflected in the handling of the health crisis following the 2004 Aceh tsunami. This study aims to analyze the paradigmatic shift in the regulation of post-disaster health crisis management from an event-based approach to a system-based regulation approach within the legal governance framework of disaster management in Aceh. The research employs a normative juridical method, using statutory and conceptual approaches, through an analysis of Law Number 24 of 2007 on Disaster Management and Aceh Qanun Number 5 of 2010 on Disaster Management. The 2025 Aceh flood is utilized as an empirical context to assess the effectiveness of the implementation of these regulatory frameworks. The findings indicate that the application of system-based regulation is more effective in limiting the escalation of health crises, ensuring the continuity of health services, and strengthening cross-sectoral coordination, compared to the reactive and fragmented nature of event-based regulation. This study affirms that post-disaster health crises are not inevitable consequences but are largely determined by the regulatory model adopted. Therefore, strengthening the implementation of system-based regulation constitutes a fundamental prerequisite for the protection of disaster victims’ right to health within the framework of the rule of law.
