PeshawarKhyber Pakhtunkhwa plans to claim 20% of hospitals’ insurance income.

Public hospitals serving the poorest patients would lose revenue meant for staff incentives and care.

The scheme now lets public hospitals keep all extra income from insurance billing, and changing that requires amending a 2020 law.

The province raised the scheme’s budget from 35 billion to 41 billion rupees this year.

The plan needs cabinet approval, then a provincial-assembly vote to amend the 2020 health law.
