This will be achieved by providing diagnostic services that meet international standards. Additionally, renowned General Practitioners, Consultants, and Professors in various medical fields will provide outpatient treatment. The focus is also on promoting health education and medical services. A day care center will be established to cater to follow-up care for cardiac, renal, and oncology patients. The long-term objective is to establish a fully equipped specialized hospital offering tertiary medical services. Furthermore, the plan includes the establishment of satellite collection centers.

Skin Scrapping C/S for AFB
A Skin Scraping C/S for AFB (Acid-Fast Bacilli) is used to diagnose infections caused by Mycobacterium species, such as tuberculosis or leprosy. The procedure involves scraping a sample from the infected skin area and sending it to the lab for culture and testing for AFB. Preparation usually involves cleaning the site, and risks are minimal, though irritation or infection can occur. The results show whether AFB is present and identify the type of bacteria. Conditions like prior antibiotic use or immune suppression can affect the test's accuracy. Results typically take a few weeks.1500 BDT
