He said, “the government is striving hard to improve the health facilities in the government hospitals”.
Besides improving the system in the public sector hospitals, the government is providing cheaper land to private hospitals to ensure that no needy family is deprived of treatment due to the unavailability of resources, he added.
Why wasting money or these health card. Why not issue this facility on CNIC number and computer read this credit facility for hospitals.
but how would that be marketable for PTI? atleast with “Sehat Insaf” cards they can shoved down people’s throat as an Achievement cuz it is designed in PTI’s Colors. It helps the illusion for them
GREAT STEP OF HOPELESS NESS
It’s already on cnic only.now new families are not getting insaf cards.they are just being told that whenever they need treatment they just bring the cnic.no insaf card needed.all will be done on cnic.
