Manzur Elahi added that NHN, with its seven hospitals and 23 medical centres, provides quality medical services to the doorsteps of people.
"To provide the best treatment, we have to buy more medical equipment and, for this, we are now trying to make all the centres profitable," he added.
"Equipment is so costly that without profit it will be harder to avail," Manzur explained.
Addressing as the chief guest, Diabetic Association President, Prof AK Azad Khan said digitisation is crucial in medical care now, and NHN is pioneering this through piloting different medical technology in the country.
"NHN is to expand its reach to cover the whole country without compromising the quality of service, reliability and affordable prices, aiming at establishing NHN as a leader in the healthcare field"
To this end, NHN will expand its health programmes through cross-cutting with other institutions, Azad added.
