Dawn headline: PM (IK) re-launches (PMLN's) health scheme under new title

[adeel.zafar]

But in this case, its more than a manshoor/manifesto.

I have already provided the links and videos for its approval, launch, card distribution etc etc.

Lol and Once more Lol. Health Insurance Program was first Launched by KP Government and then Copied by Center Gov at that them.

 

[adeel.zafar]

All of you fools, the data shows only 41 thousand people benefited from NS health scheme, the numbers are much larger for KPK. It does not matter who started it, Zardari started CPEC,

I find it difficult to believe any of these schemes would have actually worked in private hospitals. Government hospitals are already free (i think).

Pata nahi ghareeb logon k sath kia hota ho ga jab woh yeh cards lay ker hospital jatay hon gay..

I tried to find some news sources and it turned out that it was launched by PML N in 2014 and PTI in 2016.

 

[Politically1981]

Yes I think you are right - from memory, first it was started at KPK... but PML N also did not wait long - it was already started in center in December 2015. Let me find out when KPK did that

Correction
-----------
From news sources below, PMLN did it way before KPK.

KPK did that in short scale (Mardan district only) in January 2016

PESHAWAR - Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has launched health insurance scheme “Sehat Sahulat Programme” under its social health protection initiatives in district Mardan.

Full scale program KPK wide was launched in September 2016.

While PMLN announced it in 2014 and did that on full scale in December 2015.

Updated June 05, 2014
ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif on Thursday approved the National Health Insurance Scheme aimed at providing health care to some 100 million people in Pakistan.

Dec.31,2015
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Thursday launched the Prime Minister’s National Health Programme in Islamabad to ensure medical treatment for families living below the poverty line.
“It is our duty to provide the best medical care to poor people and this programme is just a step further in executing our responsibility,” PM Nawaz said while addressing a gathering at the inaugural ceremony of the National Health Programme.

It was a PTI project from day one. It doesn’t matter if federal government imitated KPK model. That’s doesn’t take away the credit from PTI. It’s the same project from kpk that is being imitated in the centre and not the PMLN one. PMLN has government in Punjab. Why didn’t they start it there in Punjab?

More power to him if he did that without any kickbacks, corruption and lack of transparency (possible but highly improbable)...

Maryum Nawaz also eradicated girls illiteracy! https://tribune.com.pk/story/978454...nawaz-michelle-obama-promote-girls-education/

Just letting you in advance in case PTI comes forward claiming that they are undertaking an initiative on girls education! :cautious::cautious::cautious:

Thats excellent point - this is where media should come and tell if NS program was any successful or just a gimmickry. They should visit hospitals and tell if things are actually working as advertised.

Same goes for KPK's sehat ka insaf scheme.

They are the first one to take credit, despite the fact that the $70M was a reward for destroying this country rather than for Women's education...

This program was announced in July 2016 but Panama shareef took Nawaz Sharif seat in same month (30th July 2016). So I doubt any progress would have been made on this initiative.

 

[insouciant]

Apparently, Saqib Nasir got a share of the pie too and went silent on it. Ironically, foreign media was more interested in finding out what happened with this money than our media..!! :cautious::cautious:

PMLN has federal government too - so they started a national health insurance scheme for all provinces, not just punjab.

I think (i may be wrong but) health insurance is a federal subject.

 

[desan]

But I have posted videos too - its not only dawn. These videos are from 2016 2015, not from today.

Even PML N youtube channel had a video posted 2 years ago....

[stoic]

Yeah right! this programme couldn't run with out Nawaz Shareef's infinite wisdom and technical expertise? What was the federal health minister doing?
Show some facts and figures like how many people were issued and treated using this initiative by PMLN

Wow, that seems to be right. I have just searched it.

BISP launched Health Insurance Scheme called “Waseela-e-Sehet Initiative” in 2010 in Faisalabad district on Pilot basis. The core objective of Waseela-e-Sehet Pilot Project was to protect the underprivileged and vulnerable population from economic consequences of potential health shocks and steer out of the catastrophic illnesses by providing social assistance through a health insurance.

The insurance covered BISP Beneficiaries of all age groups up to maximum of Rs. 25,000 per family per annum.

The difference so far:
Waseela-e-Sehet= 25k
Nawaz sharif = 300k
Imran Khan = 720k

 

[Passion76]

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday re-launched the health insurance scheme, which had been introduced by the previous Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz government as Prime Minister National Health Programme (PMNHP) in 2015, under the new title of Sehat Insaf Card after making some changes to it.

Sargodha Distribution ceremony

Why is PTI not acknowledging these work by PML N government when it continues them?

I can see that PMLN scheme had insurance for 300k but IKs scheme has insurance upto 720k. This is one difference I have seen so far.

Fawn fake NEWS was and still doing pimping for the old status quo terrorist PMLN, whorehouse, a RAW subsidiary anti Pakistan news and propaganda.

Fawn news is read by liberal atheist agnostic 3% western wanna be liberal prostitutes.

97% Pakistan does NOT read this rag. Arrest the Pro Indian American owners, and hang them with THEIR tiny balls.

Goes to show you that it's quality, not the chronology that is important...

I hope that hospitals do honour these schemes and don't just reject them.

This scheme played a big role for PTI in getting a thumping majority in KP...

In other words, they implemented it quite well.

But thats not how I remember seeing in the media. Media was saying its all because of police reforms. Sorry I don't have many relatives in KPK so I have to reply on the news media. I don't remember hearing that people are happy (or unhappy) with the health insurance in KPK. This was not even widely discussed as PTI's highlight as far as I remember.

But the same media was saying that KP's police was already good to begin with and therefore it's not a big accomplishment...

They were also saying that PTI ignored Karachi and therefore will be lucky to get a single seat!!!
