Working together for a
Healthier Punjab,
Healthier Pakistan
Indus Hospital & Health Network and Government of Punjab working together to make Punjab & Pakistan healthier
Punjab is the second largest province of Pakistan by land area. With 53% of the total population (110 million people) residing in Punjab, the province faces a significant burden of infectious diseases, accounting for over half of all tuberculosis cases in Pakistan.
Pakistan’s population is on the rise with one of the highest birth rates of 22 births per 1,000 people. Therefore, public-private partnerships are increasingly required to cope with the burgeoning health demands. Indus Hospital & Health Network has been working with the Punjab Government to help serve the region and make universal healthcare a reality.
IHHN & Government of Punjab
Public-Private Partnership
Achievements & Collaborations
With the assistance and funding provided through partnering with the Punjab Government, IHHN has expanded its network throughout the province and has made significant steps toward achieving its goal of providing quality and free healthcare to all.
The Regional Blood Center – Bahawalpur is connected with the 1,500-bed Bahawalpur Victoria Hospital Blood bank; Jubilee Mother & Child Hospital; and Civil Hospital, Bahawalpur.
IHHN managed five government Tehsil headquarters hospitals in Lahore from 2015 to 2023 using its Public Private Partnership – Capacity Enhancement Program. The IHHN and Government of Punjab public-private partnership started with taking over of management and operations at Tehsil headquarter hospital, Bedian Road, which is a 60-bed mother & child hospital that now also houses a Physical Rehabilitation Center.
The remaining four hospitals, situated in Kahna Nau, Sabzazar, Manawan, and Raiwind, are robust 100-bed multidisciplinary secondary care facilities. Each of these hospitals underwent significant enhancements to establish and sustain dedicated Inpatient, Outpatient, Emergency, and Day Care services, complemented by Laboratory and Radiology services. Notably, a centralized laboratory facility was introduced at the Sabzazar Campus.
IHHN ran these campuses employing a methodical and purpose-driven strategy, which ensures quality performance, time-efficient management, monitoring system, impact, and transparency as measures to install structured and sustainable systems.
Our capacity enhancement program focuses on training the faculty in new life and technical skills and an effective time-management system. The IHHN growth and performance model is replicable, and IHHN is determined that these hospitals will continue to offer quality and free healthcare to their community.
IHHN successfully treated nearly 8.8 million patients at these five hospitals.
