The demographic transition occurs all over the world, including Indonesia. The Indonesian Ministry of Health announced that Indonesia has been dominated by an aging society since 2017. The proportion of elderly has reached 9.03%. This commentary study aimed to see the general conditions of healthcare providers (primary healthcare centers and hospitals) in facing the aging society. Results showed that the primary healthcare centers and public hospitals are not ready yet to face the aging society. In fact, primary health care is not friendly to the elderly in terms of the facilities and the limited services of home visits. This study recommended the government and stakeholders to provide the optimal quality and quantity of health care services to the elderly who have dominated the population.
