Message From The CEO

Quality costs but poor quality costs higher. This is true for every sphere of life; however, in the health sector, its importance cannot be overemphasized. It ensures the safety of patients as well as health care providers. Patient safety is not new in the medical field but is a relatively newer concept for the general public. Regulation of health care services is now a priority at the national and provincial government level. In order to ensure the quality of care and safety in the health care system of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the provincial government established the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Healthcare Commission (KP HCC) to regulate the Health Care Establishments (HCEs), both in public and private sectors in the province, to improve quality of health care, and ensure the safety of patients and health care providers.
