The chief minister directed departments concerned to compile data of special persons across the province so that necessary steps could be taken in this regard.
He also directed to submit him a report. Special persons and their family members could avail healthcare facilities from hospitals up to 7.20 lakh rupees through Sehat Insaf Cards.
Usman Buzdar said the Punjab government had decided to issue Sehat Insaf Cards to special persons because their medical needs were particular.
He said the PTI government gave special importance to the well-being and treatment of special persons and issuance of Sehat Insaf Cards would provide more relief to them.
This is the unprecedented step of Punjab government and many more initiatives will be introduced to help rehabilitate the special persons in future as well, the chief minister concluded.
