The Taliban’s Minister of Public Health has emphasized the significant and complementary role of the private health sector in the country’s healthcare system, stating that providing quality services is not possible without coordination and supervision.

Mawlawi Noor Jalal Jalali made these remarks while sharing the Ministry of Public Health’s monitoring results with representatives of the private sector. He stressed that health services must be delivered based on accepted standards and in full coordination with the relevant authorities.

According to him, the private sector must separate medical practice from commercial interests and prioritize the health of the population over mere profit-making.
