Following the publication of the original article [1], the authors identified several correction.
1. The legends for Figs. 1 and 2 do not show the full name of the values. The values should be ‘outpatient-private, outpatient public, inpatient-public and inpatient-private’. The correct figures are given below.
Type of provider accessed by province
Type of provider accessed by disease category
2. The first name for all authors is written as an abbreviation, but the authors want to change the author names to the full names:
Faraz Khalid, Wajeeha Raza, David R. Hotchkiss, Rieza H. Soelaeman.
3. The second footnote on the page 2 should read “More details on the diseases covered and maximum thresholds for each program can be found in the additional file”. It currently refers to “in the annex” instead of “in the additional file”.
