| Abstrak/Abstract |
Social accountability becomes an emerging and contemporary issue in medical and health professions education. Institution across countries respond, define, and implement social accountability in a various approach. The issue of including social accountability aspects in accreditation of health professions education has been reported in many studies and countries (Prihatiningsih et al., 2020). In practice, some aspects of social accountability have been included in medical and health professions education accreditation system in different countries. However, there has not been an accreditation system that comprehensively included social accountability domains in their parameter. Currently, there is limited availability on formal standards and tools for social accountability assessment. This manuscript intends to present and discuss an alternative instrument to assess social accountability of medical and health professions education, for instance, the Institutional Self-Assessment Social Accountability Tool (ISAT). |
