Revolutionizing Healthcare: Punjab's Digital Leap

Punjab is witnessing a significant transformation in its healthcare sector under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. On Sunday, Mann announced the opening of 200 new Aam Aadmi Clinics, thereby increasing the total count to 1,081 across the state. This initiative underscores the government's commitment to accessible healthcare for all.

Pioneering digital innovation, Mann introduced a WhatsApp chatbot to integrate modern technology with medical services. Currently, 881 clinics are connected to this digital platform. By facilitating easy access to healthcare information, consultation reminders, and prescription slips, the technology is expected to serve around 70,000 daily visitors and make a notable impact on patient experience.

In addition to these advancements, Punjab is also setting benchmarks by establishing new medical colleges and expanding the Mukhya Mantri Sehat Yojana, which offers substantial health benefits. The state aims to become a medical hub while restoring public trust in government services through these progressive measures.
