The correct answer is: d) All of the above
Punjab’s healthcare system includes a network of primary health centers, community health centers, and district hospitals.
- Primary health centers (PHCs) are the first point of contact for patients. They provide basic healthcare services such as immunization, family planning, and treatment of minor illnesses.
- Community health centers (CHCs) are located in rural areas and provide a wider range of services than PHCs, including antenatal care, postnatal care, and treatment of common diseases.
- District hospitals are located in major cities and provide a full range of healthcare services, including emergency care, surgery, and specialized treatment.
Punjab’s healthcare system is funded by the government and is free at the point of use. However, there are also a number of private hospitals and clinics in Punjab that patients can choose to use.
