If you're not going to show us the whole query and the whole EXPLAIN
output, you're going to get equally incomplete answers. I will say
though that forcing an index instead of a seqscan on a 372-row table
isn't likely to be a magic bullet. You probably need a better join
plan.

Please post fuller details on pgsql-performance. You might save some
time by reading the posting tips first ...
