RAWALPINDI: In the past six months, over 3,162 children had heart surgeries and treatments through the Chief Minister’s Children’s Heart Surgery Program. Children from other provinces also got help from this program.

Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif has asked a team of foreign children’s heart surgeons to visit every month. A team of British doctors came to Faisalabad Cardiology Institute and did heart surgeries on children.

So far, 7,436 children from all over the country have joined the Chief Minister Children’s Heart Surgery Program.

Also, 51 children from Sindh signed up for heart surgery in the program.

Over 10 children from Balochistan, 158 from Azad Kashmir, and 30 from Gilgit-Baltistan will have free heart surgeries under this program.

Out of all the surgeries, 2,419 happened in government hospitals, and 743 were in private hospitals under the Chief Minister Children’s Heart Surgery Program.

The Punjab government is covering the costs of these surgeries and treatments. Before this program started, many children died each year because of long waiting lists and not enough resources. Parents had no choice but to watch their children struggle.

Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif said, “It’s hard to see small children suffer. The government will pay for their heart surgeries. Children come first for government resources. I see them all as my own kids.” She also said children with heart disease will get treatment quickly and for free.
