The development of the urban community is now so right, where the availability of means of transport is quite easy to get, either public transportation or bike rental. Also, the condition of the road connecting to the service is excellent, and the cost of transportation are easily accessible as well as the smoothness of city transportation available to make people who have a home away from dental health services do not feel it as an obstacle to go. Difficulty in accessing health care can be resolved by the availability of facilities and infrastructure supporting the transport of the populated areas that are far away from the location of dental health services. This could be linked to internal factors from the family or the patient. The level or degree of disease are increasingly more severe; then the individual will be needed healing thus will be more need for health services, as well as the needs of healthcare if the higher the need for a service then the higher the desire to utilize health services (Manurung, 2008).
There is a connection between the perceptions of respondents about the ease of getting the follow-1up services with the use of dental health services covered by the insurance agency. Hasbi (2012) suggests that the perception of an abstract nature is factors that affect the satisfaction of a certain form and not something concrete or actual. Perception itself has an aspect that plays the most psychological of a person. Their attitude establishes good communication and also supports the physical environment situation around the patient or society is an assessment aspect affecting the community itself.
Communication with patients and information about a service process that is being provided will lead to a positive perception and support to be able to receive a given action. Fast service response and supported the friendly attitude and sincerity in responding to the problems faced and the clarity and speed in providing follow-up services are supporting and helping to determine the success of the health service and also affect the patient's recovery.

Impressions are formed in a process with sufficient time to be able to generate a response. Their perception can help a person in selecting and interpreting a felt or seen to form a full and meaningful as what appears.

A statement choose or not choose, utilize or not utilize healthcare facilities associated with an assessment like it or not to the service with the given. This attitude is also a result of the evaluative aspects of the collection of information and to form concrete produced in the form of action. A person's perspective is strongly influenced by their patient assessment criteria are processed in the understanding, and the requirements are formed through a process of social interaction with other people (Suprihanto, 2003).
The public perception of excellent service from the clinic gives the impression of depth and motivation to take advantage of the health services provided. When people find out that the provision of services following the expected then the trust and satisfaction will increase (Notoatmodjo, 2010).
The most dominant factor about the use of dental health service with insurance agency is accessibility regarding the distance of the respondent with facility layout dental health service with insurance agency against the use of dental health service with the insurance agency. Implementation services from health insurance agency good health-related quality of services provided.
