WHO's new initiative to improve the healthcare system in Pakistan
The World Health Organization (WHO) has launched a new 'Public-Private Council' to improve healthcare facilities and strengthen the national system in Pakistan. This council has been established in collaboration with the Government of Pakistan and business leaders from the private sector to effectively address the challenges facing the country's health sector.
The primary objective of this council is to accelerate the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals. Through this initiative, modern technology, better resources, and the expertise of the private sector will be utilized in the health sector to ensure the provision of basic healthcare facilities to the general public.
Officials from the Government of Pakistan and the World Health Organization state that this partnership will be helpful in bringing transparency and efficiency to the healthcare system. The establishment of this council will not only help in the prevention of diseases but will also make the healthcare system more resilient during emergencies.
Under this project, private sector experts will work alongside the government to improve health policies. This collaboration could prove to be an important step in delivering quality medical facilities to even the remote areas of Pakistan.
This new initiative is being viewed as a positive change in Pakistan's health sector. It is expected that in the coming times, the efforts of this council will lead to a significant improvement in the standard of public health across the country, and the public will have access to better medical facilities.
