    (Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2023) Fajjar Ali; FA21-RPM-004; Dr, Rana Nadir Idrees; LHR TP 8580
    It has been estimated that almost 10% of household expenses are spent on health services, and almost 100 million populations are now under the poverty line in Pakistan, so the government needs to initiate programs to better the society (Hasan et al., 2022). The live and major example is Sehat Sahulat Program (SSP) initiated in 2015 under Universal health coverage (UHC) (Hasan et al., 2022). The SSP in Pakistan is a government-led initiative to provide access to quality healthcare services for underserved populations, including low-income and rural communities. As a result, patients who have enrolled in the program have reported improved access to healthcare services and better health outcomes. The major reason for studying the SSP is to evaluate program effectiveness and examine program outcomes. This study will also contribute to research in raising public awareness. There are few researches available on the impact assessment study of SSP, and this study will be conducted in Punjab province (Lahore) to determine its impact on the patient's health. There is a research gap in the impact study of SSP that evidence-based research did not adequately analyze its impact on the province of Punjab (Lahore). As per the evidence-based studies, the gathered data is based on random surveys of public and private hospitals and patients from different cities and areas. For this purpose, the agile methodology theory will be used, and patient perceptions will be conducted. It is qualitative research, and data will be collected from 25 respondents through in-depth interviews with patients. The Convenient sampling technique will be utilized, and a descriptive case study will be done. The results will check the program's effectiveness as perceived by patients of Lahore.
