HEALTHCARE ISSUES IN PAKISTAN
More than 80 million people in Pakistan are living below the poverty line due to which they are unable to undergo proper health treatment if they suffer from any disease. The estimated number of surgery backlogs in Pakistan is in millions every year.
- There are not many health insurance plans for the underprivileged community due to which, the majority of the people are unable to undergo medical or surgical treatment.
- Beyond the cost of medical and surgical procedures, they have to pay for other expenses such as pre and post-operative expenses which include; medical tests, medications, and hospital stay charges. It is almost impossible for someone who earns less than $2 a day to pay a hefty amount for medical relief.
- There is a lack of medical facilities and medical professionals in rural areas across Pakistan due to which, poverty-stricken families are unable to avail required treatment.
- There are a limited number of beds in local hospitals which are not enough to cater to the healthcare needs of underprivileged communities in Pakistan.
- Every second patient including a child is put on a long waiting list for free treatment and during the waiting period, the patient’s health further deteriorates. In most cases, patients expire until their turn comes for free treatment in government hospitals.
- Private hospitals are out of the reach for lower-income class families due to the high costs of consultation fees and medical & surgical procedures.
