On 26 July 2024, the government of Indonesia issued Government Regulation No. 28 of 2024 ("GR 28"), which is an implementing regulation of Law No. 17 of 2023 on Health ("Health Omnibus Law"). GR 28 came into effect on the day it was issued.

GR 28 regulates the same main principles as the Health Omnibus Law, but adds more depth and details. It contains 1,172 articles, a lot more than the Health Omnibus Law's 458 articles. GR 28 revokes 31 regulations at both the government and presidential levels, although implementing regulations of the revoked regulations remain in effect as long as they do not contradict the provisions of GR 28.
