However in 1992 management of hospital in consultation with Air HQ decided to allow civilian patients for treatment as well. Main purpose to allow civilians was to generate funds for the hospital and doctors as private practice. Funds generated were shared between hospital and doctors on proportion basis. However, there is a lot of potential that is required to be explored but unfortunately this is not the case.This study is conducted to highlight measures to increase private patients at PAF hospital Malir Cantonment.
