In a groundbreaking effort to improve cardiac health, the Mann government has launched a Punjab heart care initiative aimed at saving the lives of heart patients across the state. Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and Health Minister Balbir Singh shared key details about the program during a press briefing.
Hub-and-Spoke Model Simplifies Treatment
Under the Punjab heart care initiative, hospitals have been connected through a hub-and-spoke model, streamlining patient referral processes and ensuring that heart patients receive timely and critical treatment. This integrated approach is designed to provide immediate care at the right facility, reducing delays in life-saving interventions.

Insurance and Anti-Fraud Measures
The Punjab heart care initiative also includes robust insurance oversight. United India Insurance Company follows a dual-operation system to protect patients and prevent fraud. A state-level anti-fraud unit has been established, along with district managers who verify claims personally. The system ensures that patients face no difficulties and receive treatment without unnecessary hurdles.
