The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has released two billion rupees for health cards, which will be used to restore the health card service and make further reforms to improve it. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Health Advisor Dr. Riyaz Anwar said that the health card service was closed due to lack of funds, but it has now been restored on the special instructions of Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Azam Khan. Dr. Anwar said that the government is also taking steps to improve the quality of care in MTI hospitals. He said that unnecessary development work in these hospitals has been banned, and the focus will now be on improving patient care and facilities.

The restoration of the health card service is a welcome development for the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The service provides free medical treatment to eligible individuals, and it has been a lifesaver for many people. The government's commitment to improving the quality of care in MTI hospitals is also commendable. These hospitals provide essential healthcare services to a large number of people, and it is important that they are well-equipped and well-staffed. The people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa look forward to the benefits of the restored health card service and the improved quality of care in MTI hospitals.
