This programme will provide five types of transplant surgeries completely free of cost to the general public, including liver, kidney, bone marrow, and cornea transplants, as well as cochlear implants for children born with hearing impairments.

To benefit from the program, patients must register with the Punjab Human Organ Transplantation Authority (PHOTA).

Once registered, they can undergo organ transplants under the government initiative.

The transplants will be conducted in both public and private hospitals, ensuring wider access to life-saving procedures.
