Pakistan’s Federal Minister of Health has announced a major initiative to expand access to primary healthcare across the country. Under this plan, mobile clinics and upgraded local health centre networks will deliver essential medical services directly to underserved communities, eliminating the need for long-distance travel.
Mobile healthcare units staffed by doctors, nurses, and lab technicians will visit remote villages, providing on‑the‑spot diagnostics, basic treatment, and health education. Simultaneously, existing rural health centres will be equipped with modern tools, trained staff, and electronic medical record systems to ensure quality care and streamlined patient tracking.
The goal is to make healthcare both accessible and affordable for all Pakistanis. Targeted services include maternal and child health, immunizations, chronic disease screening, and emergency response. Awareness campaigns will accompany the rollout to educate communities on preventive care and available services.
By enhancing local health infrastructure and bringing medical care to the doorstep of those in need, this initiative aims to improve health outcomes, reduce the burden on urban hospitals, and foster equitable access across regions.
