MEDAN | INDATANEWS.COM The Provincial Government of North Sumatra and PT An-Nisa Utama have strengthened their collaboration to develop a modern, high-quality healthcare system for the public. The partnership focuses on improving medical human resources and transforming hospital services across the region.

A high-level meeting between Governor Muhammad Bobby Afif Nasution and PT An-Nisa Utama Director Muhammad Arif Nasution was held at the governor's office in Medan. The meeting was attended by representatives of hospitals, regional state-owned enterprises (BUMDs), and local government officials.

The governor reiterated that healthcare remains one of the top priorities of the provincial administration, particularly through the implementation of Universal Health Coverage (UHC), which aims to ensure free access to medical services for all citizens.
