KP Govt introduces free OPC (OPD – Outpatient Department) services under Sehat Insaf card
PESHAWAR: In a major healthcare breakthrough, the Sehat Insaf Card initiative has introduced free outpatient department (OPD) services for patients in four districts of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, namely Mardan, Kohat, Malakand, and Chitral.
This project is financially backed by the German aid agency KFW, with an allocation of €4.9 million for the pilot phase, which will initially launch in Mardan before expanding to the remaining districts.
The Sehat Insaf Card program was initially launched to cover in-patient department (IPD) services across Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, starting with these four districts and eventually rolling out to the entire province.
Now, with KFW’s support, phase two of the program introduces free OPD services for approximately 120,000 families in the selected districts.
The State Life Insurance Corporation has signed an agreement to administer the project, with Health Advisor Ihtesham Ali and Secretary Health Adeel Shah overseeing the process.
The funding for this initiative is largely provided by KFW, accounting for 90% of the total, while the provincial government contributes 10%.
