Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) has supported numerous initiatives to bring improvement in Pakistan's health sector over the last three years.

The Federal Cabinet approved the National Vaccine Policy, which has helped promote local vaccine production and enabled Pakistan to move towards international standards.

The National Blood Transfusion Policy has improved the system for ensuring safe blood supplies and increasing plasma production.

A plan has been launched to develop Pakistan as a medical tourism hub, enabling patients from other countries to seek treatment in Pakistan.

New opportunities have also emerged in the health-tech sector, including startups, telemedicine services and foreign investment.

Pakistan’s healthcare sector recorded a profit of 42.2 billion rupees last year, reflecting a seventy-eight percent increase and reaching a record-high level.
