Mustafa Kamal Sehat Kahani MoU signing ceremony took place in Islamabad, marking a landmark breakthrough for remote medical accessibility across Pakistan. The agreement was signed by federal minister for National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination Syed Mustafa Kamal along with the top management of the digital health platform Sehat Kahani. This milestone achievement marks the beginning of the second phase of the Federal Healthcare Digitalization Program.
Accelerating the Telemedicine Network Expansion
The main goal of the new corporate contract is to increase the availability of electronic medical consultation services that do not require paper. After successful operationalization of 10 initial centers of digital health across Islamabad and Karachi, 10 new centers of digital health were set up as part of the recently inked partnership.
This technology-driven project offers full operation benefits:
Secure Telemedicine Network: Providing 500 new doctors with access to the secure network.
Subsidized Care Costs: Sehat Kahani absorbs doctors’ consultation fees and the state provides administrative space and medicines.
Economic Public relief: The initiative has already been able to save an estimated Rs70 million in the cost of traditional medical care to the citizens.

Deploying Cutting-Edge Digital Health Centers
The Ministry of Health is incorporating cutting-edge technology in telecommunication to lighten the burden of patients at traditional state clinics. This will involve upgrading 20 complete Basic Health Units (BHUs) across the whole capital territory under this scheme. 50% will have direct technological support from Sehat Kahani.
In addition, the minister announced the formation of a state-of-the-art telemedicine center with the name of PIMS. The Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) Emergency ward will soon be moved and its old Structural wing will be converted into a Central point for digital treatments.
