A Review of Frequency and Pattern of Diseases among Patients in Pakistan

An important aspect of human life is a sound health. The chance of illness reduces with better health. It is proved that level of mortality, morbidity and infertility lowers with healthy life style. In healthy population the rate of diseases is minimum. Better health also improves school children attendance due to fewer leaves as comparative in illness.  For better development of human resource investment should be done on health departments of the country (World Bank, 1993). In Pakistan health care system has been improved by view of physical infrastructure and manpower growth in both public and private setup. However, health care delivery system is not fulfilling the needs of fast growing population of the country. Maternal and infants mortality rate is still high as compared to its other neighboring countries. The conditions would be better by increasing budget allocation to the health sector.
