Penegakan hukum terhadap tindak pidana korupsi berskala kecil di Indonesia saat ini terjebak dalam paradoks inefisiensi ekonomi yang serius, di mana biaya operasional penanganan perkara sering kali jauh melampaui nilai kerugian negara yang berhasil diselamatkan. Problematika ini semakin pelik akibat disharmoni norma antara semangat efisiensi dalam Undang-Undang Nomor 1 Tahun 2023 dengan kekakuan regulasi sektoral yang berlaku efektif per Januari 2026. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis inefisiensi tersebut menggunakan pendekatan EAL dan merumuskan model penyelesaian baru berbasis Cost-Awareness. Metode penelitian yang diterapkan adalah sosio-legal, yang mensintesiskan analisis doktrinal terhadap konflik norma dengan evaluasi data sekunder mengenai beban biaya perkara dan perilaku sosial. Temuan penelitian mengungkap bahwa pendekatan retributif konvensional menciptakan kerugian ganda bagi keuangan negara. Hambatan yuridis fundamental teridentifikasi dalam bentuk “gembok ganda” regulasi: Pasal 4 Undang-Undang Nomor 31 Tahun 1999 yang menutup ruang diskresi materiil, serta Pasal 82 huruf c Undang-Undang Nomor 20 Tahun 2025 yang secara formil mengecualikan korupsi dari mekanisme keadilan restoratif. Guna mengurai kebuntuan ini, penelitian merekomendasikan amandemen ganda secara terbatas terhadap kedua pasal tersebut, penerapan sanksi finansial berupa pengembalian kerugian ganda (double restitution) yang disertai sanksi administratif pemecatan, serta penguatan pengawasan publik melalui citizen auditor. Model ini ditawarkan sebagai solusi konkret untuk menjamin kepastian hukum sekaligus efisiensi anggaran negara.
