Regional fiscal health measured with Brown indicator that modified according to Indonesian conditions, using the PLS-SEM approach model, with 1,125 observations of autonomous regions data in Indonesia in 2012-2016. This study proves that there is significant influence between regional fiscal health on human development index, between fiscal health on regional government performance, between regional government performance on human development index, and the role of partial mediation of regional government performance between the relationships of regional fiscal health to human development index.
