About Health Card

The Health Card is an initiative taken by the Government of Pakistan to provide free health care to poor and deserving families. Currently, millions of poor and deserving families across the country are benefiting from it. With the help of a sehat card, treatment can be completed in government and non-government hospitals across the country. And the patients do not need to pay any expenses for the treatment because the government of Pakistan itself pays all the expenses.
