The teams are submitting regular reports to the Chief Minister Punjab, while a dedicated digital dashboard has also been made functional to enable real-time monitoring.
On the directives of the Chief Minister Punjab, inspection teams are conducting inspections of hospitals to ensure the provision of free medicines and healthcare facilities to patients. Any negligence or shortcomings in service delivery are being identified promptly for corrective action.
The inspection teams, acting on the Chief Minister Punjab’s instructions, will also extend monitoring to education departments and other government institutions beyond the health sector.

Following public complaints and inspection findings, several medical superintendents (MSs) and principals have been replaced for failing to meet performance standards.
