LRBT Hospital,Lahore

Abstract

It was 11 January 2003. Justice Amir Raza,¹ the President of the Hospital Executive Committee, Layton Rahmatullah Benevolent Trust (LRBT) Free Eye Care and Cancer Hospital at Township, Lahore, was on his way back from Karachi after attending the annual budget meeting with the administration of LRBT Base Hospital (also the head office). As usual the meeting had gone smoothly for the most part, except during the discussion on capital expenses. The head office administration felt that the Lahore Hospital should be able to make do with lower-cost equipment since the hospital was after all a charity-funded institution.
