The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Government has taken a big step to improve healthcare with Pakistan’s first Online Medicine Ordering Portal.
This new system, launched by Chief Minister Ali Amin Khan Gandapur, makes it easier for hospitals and clinics to order medicines.
It’s a simple and efficient way to manage medicine supplies, ensuring transparency and accountability across the province.
This digital platform will allow District Health Officers (DHOs) and Medical Superintendents (MSs) to order medicines online, promoting transparency and accountability.
How the Portal Works:
- Automated Orders: The portal generates medicine orders based on an approved list, reducing human error and manipulation
- Deviation Alerts: The system immediately flags any deviation from the approved process.
- QR Code Tracking: Orders can be tracked in real-time using QR codes, ensuring swift and accurate deliveries.
- Combating Corruption: This initiative minimizes corruption, conserves resources, and ensures transparency in healthcare management.
