Executive Summary
Hospital is the idea that highlights the importance of health. It is the place where
human beings can get solution of their body complexities. The core objective of such
institution is primarily to serve human kind. Hospital acts as a life saving entity and takes
action to cure the people from the diseases. Pakistan has become the seventh most
populous country in the world due to its increasing population estimated as 85 million to
149 million from 1981 to 2005. This increasing growth rate has posed a great challenge
to the existing infrastructure for basic facilities in the country. Several factors such as an
exploding population, increased awareness and the increase in pollution owing to the
spread of industrialization; act in unison and contribute to the rise in the demand for
public health care.
Pakistan is at the top of infant mortality rate in Asia with 7 % infant mortality rate
whereas, 9.9% mortality rate of the children under the age of 5. Pakistan has entered in
the World Health Organizations Millennium Development goals (MDG) 2015 for the
developed and under developing countries. According to MDGs infant mortality and
mortality under the age of 5 is declining with 2% per annum, by providing them the
facility of immunization in the ignored areas.
According to our calculation 20,297 kids will die in the year 2008, which is a great loss
for our nation, eventually it is as we have lost very precious gems that could be one of
our very bright future leaders. Although well be generating profits, moreover we are

Introduction

Britannica Encyclopedia (2008) defines a hospital as an institution for diagnosis and


treatment of sick and injured, providing housing during treatment, examining patients and
managing child birth. Hospital may be public & private. The public hospital
(Government-Owned) means a hospital which is owned and controlled by the
Government. A private hospital is any other hospital besides Government hospital.
Hospital is the idea that highlights the importance of health. It is the place where
human beings can get solution of their body complexities. The core objective of such
institution is primarily to serve human kind. In the modern days, the importance of
hospital has been increased due to many new factors. Public sector hospitals are
confronted with over whelming pressure due to lack of sufficient infra structure and
increase in number of patients. Therefore this leads to an increase in demand for private
hospitals. The popularity of the private hospitals is increasing because of the factors like
the introduction of the latest technology, hygienic environment and professional staff
attitude thereby these factors has made a highly constructive contribution in the private
sector hospitals. Relying on the factors like constrained public sector health system,
growing population, introduction of new and modern medical facilities technologies and
increased healthcare awareness in the country made the private sector lucrative business
opportunity for investment.

Opportunity Rationale
The health condition of Pakistan is generally poor. But with the passage of time & Govt.
sympathetic views gave it strength and there are many improvements take place from last
2 decades. According to NIPS report the population of Pakistan is almost 1.6 billion in
2006. For this huge population there are only 13937 hospitals. The registered doctors are
1, 27,895.
Child health care trend 2004-06 shows that 99 children out of every thousand die before
reaching their fifth birthday, 70 infants out of every thousand die before their first
birthday (PIDE working papers, 2007). With the Govt. Expanded Program on
Immunization (launched in 1978) and other Child health care programs there is a decline
in the morality rates and other diseases faced by infants during their first five years, like
in 2007, 6.061 million children of 0-11 months, 5.83 million children of 12-23 months
and 7.03 million pregnant ladies were targeted for programs. (PSLM, page 186)
However, 82% children of 0-11 months, 85% children of 12-23 months and 47% of
mothers were immunized. Common diseases for immunization of children are
tuberculosis, diphtheria, pertussis (Whooping cough), tetanus, polio and measles.
Childhood diarrhea is the serious problem in Pakistan because the over all percentage is
16 which are suffered by this disease during their first 30 days of life in 2004-2005
(PSLM, page 64).
One of the Goal of National Maternal Neonatal and Child Health (MNCH) programs of
Govt. of Pakistan is to reduce the maternal, child health and illness by improving their
status. The table # 11.1 of Economic Survey of Pak 2007-08 shows the increasing trend
in hospital, doctors and maternity & Child health care center year wise. This shows a very
positive change. Govt. spending on health sectors promotes many others groups to work
on this sector. Many private companies and NGOs have done their work on it. If there is
any positive change it does not mean there is no need for further improvements.

The decline in the morality, immunizations diseases and maternal rate shows there is still
need to establish such hospitals so that there is further decline in the morality, maternal
and immunization diseases.
Pakistan is at the top of infant mortality and mortality under the age of 5years in the
region of South Asia. Pathetic situation for Pakistan, because the economy of Pakistan is
far better than most of the countries like Bangladesh, Nepal and etc. 70 infants out of
1000 infants die every year, and 99 kids out of 1000 die every year. ( Pakistan Millennium
Development Goal 2005).

According to Bearue of Statistics Planning and Development Department,
Government of Punjab, Lahore (2007), Population of the Gujranwala is 1.7% of the
whole population of Pakistan, well divide the mortality of the Punjab with the 1.7% to
obtain contribution of the Gujranwala. The total child mortality in the Gujranwala in the
year 2008 is 20,855 kids. Such a big opportunity for the child specialize hospital.
If still 20,855 kids will die in the year of 2008, it means there is a huge gap into the
demand and supply in the child care industry. This is due to the lack of child care
hospitals into the Gujranwala, although there are many of clinics, and other general
hospitals which are working for child care but there is another fact which is these
hospitals are in a cluster in the Gujranwala, Accessibility is another issue for the people
of Gujranwala. There is not any child specialize hospital in the northern region of
Gujranwala.

Industry Analysis
A comprehensive analysis of hospital industry has done. Many of the management
models are applied to determine specific kind of industry trends that would help us in the
formulation of our business strategies. The industry analysis is comprised of PEST
analysis, Porter Diamond Model, Value Chain Analysis, Porter Five Forces Analysis, and
Competitors Analysis.
PEST Analysis
Political Conditions:
Political condition of Pakistan always remains unstable. In every era it seems very
complex due to dishonesty, corruption and instability. Pakistan is still facing a lot of
problems with respect to politics. It is true that every Govt. during its time set best
policies, regulations and subsidies for every sector especially to health. And from 1990 to
onwards major changes take place in health sector. Every Government is fully aware of
the challenges of communicable vs non-communicable diseases and other structural
problem in the health sector. The Ministry of Health and the provincial departments are
already engaged in bringing improvements in health sector through better provision of
health facilities, improvement in infrastructure and human resource, and implementation
of various health programs. But still health conditions are poor overall. However political
analysis of health sector is given below.

Health care issues were always taken into the consideration by the Govt. of
Pakistan; the expenditure on health has increased 17.2 billion in 2001-02 to 39.2
billion in 2005-06, with a highest jump of Rs. 7.8 billion 2005-06. (Economic
Survey of Pakistan, 2005-06)

With the sympathetic view Total Expenditure on health has increased from 50
billion to 60 billion rupees of which Rs. 27 billion have been allocated for
development expenditure, while 33 billon for current expenditure.(Economic
Survey of Pakistan, 2007-08)

Health expenditure during FY-07 increased by 35.6% to Rs. 53 billion out of this
53 billion largest increased was observed in Punjab which is 53.3%. (PSLM
Report, 2006-07)

Provincial governments have focused on restructuring the mode of primary


healthcare delivery by revitalizing BHUs and RHCs. Punjab is currently
operational in 23 districts. (PSLM, 2006-07)

Throughout the country, the vast network of health care facilities include 945
hospitals, 5349 BHUs and Sub- Health Centers , 562 RHCs, 4755 Dispensaries,
903 MCH Centers and 290 TB Centers. These healthcare facilities show an
improvement over the previous year. (Economic Survey of Pakistan, 2007-08)

The Ministry of Health has been implementing a Health Management Information


System (HMIS). The objectives of the HMIS are to improve coverage and quality
of care for priority health interventions

Pakistan has an extensive public health infrastructure, which consist of a network


of more than 12,000 first level heath care facilities and a range of disease-specific
vertical public health programs.

Economic condition of Pakistan:


Pakistan has been in the grip of economic crisis since its creation. With exemption of a
few prosperous years, the general economic condition of the people remained pressed
all through the last 50 years. It is a bitter reality that the countrys does not seem to
comprehend the economic problem, what to talk of solving it. The situation is that of
total stagnation and recession. However, an overview of Pakistans economy is given
below that the shows the economic condition of health.

The economy of Pakistan has grown on an average of 7.5 percent over the
period 2003-07, whereas during the last year 2006-07 a growth rate of 7
percent has been achieved. (Economic Survey of Pakistan, 2007-08)

In spite of these extraordinary developments Pakistans economy posted a


robust growth of 5.8 percent in 2007-08, as against 6.8 percent last year and
this years target of 7.2 percent. (Economic Survey of Pakistan, 2007-08)

According to Economic Survey of Pakistan (2005-06), Pakistan is spending


0.75 percent of GDP on health care services.

Punjab Child Care

Step into a healthy future

Page 15

GIFT Business School

Health expenditures in absolute terms have more than doubled during the last
seven years; from Rs. 25 billion in 2001-02 to Rs. 60 billion in 2007-08.
(Economic Survey of Pakistan, 2007-08)

However, health expenditure as a percentage of GDP does not present a


satisfactory picture as it has remained stagnant at almost 0.6 percent during the
entire period of 2001-02 till 2007-08. (Economic Survey of Pakistan, 2007-08)

The registered medical and paramedical personnel and expenditure on health,


which are publishes every year by the health ministry & planning and
development division of Pakistan, shows the yearly increment in the range of
doctors, nurses, lady health workers, mid wives and development and non
development expenditures. (Economic Survey of Pakistan, 2007-08)

According to this Health ministry of Pakistans report, in year 2007 number of


registered doctors are 127, 859, nurses are 62, 591, while expenditures on
development and non development programs are millions Rs. 272280.00 & Rs.
32670.00 respectively.

Pakistans health care system is inadequate, inefficient, and expensive; and


comprises an under-funded and inefficient public sector along with a mixed,
expensive and unregulated private sector.(PIDE, Working Papers 32, 2005-06)

These poor conditions in the health sector may be attributed to a number of


factors like poverty, malnutrition, unequal access to health facilities,
inadequate allocation for health, and high population growth and infant
mortality. (PSLM Report, 2006-07)

The poor in Pakistan is not only deprived of financial resources but also lack
access to secondary and tertiary health care services. (PSLM Report, 2006-07)

Public expenditures in General Hospitals and Clinics sub-sector of health are


regressive in most of the regions in Pakistan.

The share of lower participation in term of amounts (rupees) in the Hospitals


and Clinics expenditures is only 7 percent while it is 36 percent for the higher
quintile in Pakistan over all. (PSLM Report, 2007-08)

Social Condition of Pakistan:


It is true that overall condition of Pakistan unfortunately deprived. In every field of its
success it faces a lot of problems since its birth. Its all sides political, economical,
social and technological go down day by day. However in all eras every Govt. tried
their best with techniques, policies and rules to done some thing better for their
country but they are all vain at all. And in their failure major participation is in hand of
political uncertainty and corruption. A harmful social condition can be identified as a
certain deadly factor in a society evoking distress and uncertainty. This damaging
social condition becomes a social problem when a number of competing needs stay
behind for long. Any country and its habitants have required for basic needs such as
food, shelter and education that need to be fulfilled and in case they are not satisfied
they become social dilemma.

Today Pakistan is facing child labor, poverty, illiteracy, population growth,


diseases, terrorism, smuggling, drug abuse, discrimination of gender, and deviant
behavior as its social problems.(Economic Survey of Pakistan, 2007-08)

Good Health not only valued for its own but also raises the human capital of a
country because it positively contributes to the economical and social
development. (Economic Survey of Pakistan, 2007-08)

Along side the intrinsic importance of health in social, economical and human
development and as a dimension of welfare, poor health can directly influence an
individuals opportunities, his/her earning capacities and participation in
community activities.

This important function of health implies that inequalities in health often translate
into inequalities in other dimensions of welfare.

The Government health strategy focuses on young children and their mothers,
particularly in rural areas.

One of the most critical needs addressed by Government is to improve womens


access to government health care. The Governments strategy for primary health
includes:
o Improving the efficiency and utilization of basic health care services, both
preventive and curative
o Improving programs design by paying more attention to quality
o Increasing access to health care by constructing more facilities
(PSLM Report, 2007-08)

61.2% of Pakistanis are illiterate (Pakistan Social & living Measurement Survey
Report, 2007-08). Literacy and primary school enrolment rates in Pakistan have
shown improvement during last five years but they are still low compared with
the countries of the region. (PSLM Report, 2007-08)

A number of studies of the education system in Pakistan have revealed that the
quality of education being provided by government primary schools is poor, with
many schools lacking adequate teachers and resources. (PSLM Report, 2007-08)

Basic objective of Govt. Educational Programs is to expand and improve the


quality of publicly provided primary education.

The PRSP strategy for the sector includes, improving the functioning, utilization
of existing schools, improving the quality of education, increase enrolment,
improving access to education and expanding the primary education system.

Most of the households in rural Pakistan do not have access to adequate potable
water. Many also lack toilets and adequate sanitation systems. (PSLM Report,
2007-08)

The Government aims to expand access to clean drinking water and to improve
sanitation particularly in rural areas. (PSLM Report, 2007-08)

The main Government strategy in rural water supply is to improve the


performance and operation of local water supply systems by promoting
community responsibility for the management and maintenance of systems.

To improve sanitation in rural areas, the government is promoting the construction


of household latrines, the construction of open surface drains with street
pavements and providing hygiene education.

Technological Factors:
Technology plays an important role in every economy. In Pakistan technology plays an
important role. Many labs, research centers are designed for better care and protection of
patients. With the help of New and innovative technology the possibility of many
diseases are overcome. Many seminars and research surveys are designed to promote
betterment in health field. Pakistan Minister of Health Inaugurates OIC COMSTECH
International Workshop on Nan medicine. The weeklong international workshop on Nan
medicine organized by Organization of Islamic Conference Standing Committee on
Scientific and Technological Cooperation (COMSTECH) has been launched at
Islamabad,Pakistan.

Diamond Model
Diamond model shows the industry structure its attractiveness, rivalry, supporting, factors
and strength in economy. It also shows the nations competitiveness in global world.
Hospital industry in Pakistan shows the growing aspect. From every year there is an
increment in number of doctors, hospitals, paramedical staff, nurses, laboratories, and
clinics but there is still need to perform better in health field (Economic survey 2006-07).

Demand Condition:
The demand for hospital in Pakistan is still increasing. There are many reasons for it like
Govt. spending in health sector, grant from health NGOs and investment in health sector
from private investors. The need of hospitals in all over Pakistan is high because
mortality rate under age of five is 99 out of every thousand, Also infant mortality rate is
more than 70 out of every 1000 (Human Development Report, 2008). According to
Pakistan Millennium Development Goals Report 2006 one of the major challenges faced
by Govt. is to reduce the Child mortality rate.
The immunization of children against 6 diseases (tuberculosis, diphtheria, whooping
cough, tetanus, polio and measles) is most cost effective and health intervention reduce
under five mortality rate, it also shows positive change in the reduction of mortality rate.
But there is still room for improvement, because this report shows only achievement of
77% result while we need minimum 95%. From MDG report Govt. target that the infant
mortality rate in 2015 remain only 40 per one thousand while under five year mortality
rate is only 52 per one thousand.

Establishment).
Govt. offers its services like it offers 12000 first care heath facilities and range of
diseases specific vertical health programs. Some programs were malaria control scheme,
non-communicable diseases, HIV/AIDS and hepatitis
Hospital is a capital intensive project, once the required infrastructure is developed; the
management focus should shift to maintain its repute, provide quality services and
engaged reputed consultants to attract patients. The involvement of huge investment is
also considered as the entry barrier in hospital industry, once the technology is purchased
then there is a maintenance cost as well and to cover all the costs we need less number of
customers with high purchasing power or vice versa.
The formation of the private hospital type and public hospital type varies, as for the
establishment of a private hospital comprises of the investment usually from a group of
doctors and the involvement of the third party is normally lacking. As seen for the public
sector hospital the investment primarily comes from the government spending.
Supporting industry
Surgical Industry:
For hospital industry surgical tools and instruments plays an important role. For this
purpose Pakistan has its reputed name in all over the world. Sialkot city has its own name
not only in sports but also in manufacturing of surgical instruments and tools. Initially
this industry started manufacturing from very basic level than with the passage of time it
picked growth and now 95% of its instruments are exported to other countries. Instrument
sector is considered as a sub-sector of light engineering and contributes 70% of total
export of this sector. Pakistan & world export facts shows increasing parallel trend in all
over the world regarding surgical instruments.

In helping and supporting firms, Govt. and NGOs also play an important role. The grant
from NGOs and subsidy provided by Govt. give strength to our Health sector. Provincial
Govt. focuses on restructuring of primary health delivery modes. Punjab Govt. takes a
lead in this field and is currently operating in 23 districts. Provincial Devolved Social

Firms Structure, Rivalry Strategy:
The firm structure is distinctive in both the categories of the hospital. As for the public
sector hospital the structure is more inclined towards the bureaucratic element in their
workings that leads to some problems. The problems could be seen as:

Doctors arriving late than the prescribed timings.

The patients face long waiting hours.

People use negative means to attain the desired response as the administration is
poorly managed and very weak in nature.

Very gloomy and poor ambiance.

The unavailability of the staff to guide the patients through the lengthy procedures
of the hospital.

As for the private hospital the structure is somehow a blend of both, mechanistic and
organic approach according to the requirements and nature of the operations. The
administration and management should follow rigid rules and regulations in order to
streamline the processes and procedures that will aid in the smoothness of the operations,
otherwise serious problems can occur that will lead towards customer dissatisfaction. So
to keep all the processes and procedures in flow specific rules are to be followed.
But without flexibility it would still be a major set back because at some places flexibility
becomes a major factor. So, at places which are to be dealt spontaneously need to be
prioritized according to the situation. In compensation plans, weekly schedule for the
staff, etc here the organic approach becomes vital for the working that creates a positive
bond and loyalty between the staff towards the organization.
The rivalry strategies adopted for the public hospital and the private hospital also differs
as the public hospital competes with other hospital on its image, goodwill, and huge
infrastructure. Whereas the private sector hospital competes with other hospitals on the
basis of goodwill and the aim for maximization of the profit with high quality control and
a well furnished environment.

Value Chain Analysis


Value chain analysis is used to analyze the specific activities through which a firm creates
its competitive advantage. It is also helpful to model the entire firm as chain of value
creating activities. The concept of value chain analysis was given by Michael E. Porter
in his article of Competitive Advantage: Creating and Sustaining Superior
Performance.
With the use of this model we can identify our core activities, and those operations as
which can be outsourced to increase the profitability of our hospital. The value chain
analysis contains primary activities and secondary activities.
Primary Value Chain Activities
Inbound Logistics:
The input for any hospital is ultimately the patients foreseeing the treatment. The patients
are being treated distinctively in a private sector hospital than in a public sector hospital.
The patients have to wait more at public hospital than at a private one, as they charge less
in a public hospital than in a private hospital so a high number of people pour in for the
treatment.
Once the patient is entered in a public sector hospital he has to face several formalities
and has to go through a number of procedures and then finally he is able to see the
desired doctor. However in a private hospital the formalities are less and one does not
have to follow a series of so many formalities to reach to a particular doctor.
The patients have to wait for their turn in a waiting area or a lobby as designed in a
hospital premises. For a public sector the waiting hours can be prolonged on a doctors
discretion. As it has been observed that the doctors even leave in between their prescribed
timings and dont bother much in a public sector hospital. Whereas in a private hospital
the waiting hours are less as everything is well scheduled and managed. Appointments
are dealt at first and the rest is queued and handled appropriately.

Operations:
Patients enter a hospital for treatment therefore operations act as a major element in any
hospital. But the operations differ in both the sectors. As in the Public sector hospital the
patient is attended and is treated according to the disease but the surgical equipment is not
much updated. Whereas in a Private sector hospital there is a high range of updated
surgical equipments and the patients are attended with more care and commitment. The
patients are leading further for check ups until the proper cure is achieved.
Outbound Logistics:
The patients are admitted till the cure is achieved or till the completion of the treatment as
the paramedical staff in a hospital properly looks after them. Then they are free to be
discharged from the hospital after the desired state has been achieved. It has been
observed that in private hospital the patients are discharged according to under or over
utilization of beds. When these hospitals are under-utilized they tend to discharge the
patients as late as possible and vice versa.
Marketing and Sales:
The image of marketing and sales activities are just for profit making purpose, and image
of hospitals are social, it arises many issues when we talking about marketing of a private
hospital. Most of people normally think that they are
Services:
The services offered are generally differentiated in a private hospital than in a public
hospital. As in a public sector hospital there is a wide variety of services offered but the
services being offered are not high in quality and not much prompt. If the person seeking
a service has any reference available in a hospital he is able to get a prompt service
delivery, or the person bribes the related person to seek the service at first. This is a major
practice being used in a public sector hospital.
As a government sector hospital is huge with high capital investment thus leading to
more defined services that vary in variety according to the needs and requirements of the

different departments prevailing in it. As there are more departments in a public sector
hospital than in a private one because of the sufficient availability of resources that are
being employed.
Whereas in a Private sector hospital the capital invested is relatively limited than a public
hospital. Therefore the departments would be less in number so would be the services
being offered. But the services would be high in quality as in a private sector hospital
much consideration ad focus is given to each element being engaged in its working. Here
the element of references or bribery somehow lacks to attain the prompt service delivery
or being served at the first place. As people are answerable for any faults being occurred
whereas in a public sector hospital people dont bother much and observe much
responsibilities on their shoulders. Therefore variations occur in both the categories of the
hospital.
Support Activities

Procurement:
The procurement for a hospital is mainly held with the procurement department. This
department primarily deals with acquiring the surgical equipment for the operations or
general check ups. As the medical tests or check ups need specific equipment thus they
are to be purchased by any hospitals procurement department. The procurement
department should have strong contact with the pharmaceutical, surgical and with those
companies which provide hi-tech equipments manufacturers/suppliers.

Technology Development:
The technology plays a vital supporting role for any of the working body. So in a hospital
whether private or public this is a major concern but still the type and mode of the
technology usually differs as where it is being used. The machinery being used for
treatment is thus more sophisticated, and is updated to cope up with the new challenges
of the changing needs of the dynamic environment. Still the records are being maintained
manually and not much attention is given to the development of the technology with the
latest trends of the society.

Human Resource Management:


Qualified and experienced staff is the real asset of an organization especially in a hospital
almost every thing is based on doctors and their performance. So by a formal human
resource department hospitals are getting not only experienced doctors but also following
the training procedure they make them more efficient toward their services which
hospitals are providing

Firm infrastructure
The private sector hospitals thus fall low in the infrastructure than a public sector hospital
as the private sector has relatively less finance available, with less capital being invested
and less resources being employed than in a public sector hospital. As government
spending is always high when a project is being under taken with rich resources and high
finance is available.
TQM (Total Quality Management) is thus a main concern for a private sector hospital as
private sector hospital cannot survive and compete with a public sector hospital without
continuous improvement. As the charges are relatively high in a private sector hospital,
thus in order to tempt the patients it becomes necessary to make the best use of the
available resources and to remain in the best condition so that people can outweigh the
benefits than the cost they are incurring.
However, in a public sector hospital TQM is taken for granted and overlooked, as things
are remained unnoticed because they idealize that people will still come to them as they
are huge service concern and people look to them and prioritizes them over a private
hospital. The legal requirements for the private hospital are far more than government
hospitals. As the public hospitals are made by government, so they almost fulfill the legal
entities. On the other hand, the private hospitals have to fulfill the legal requirements.

Porters 5 Forces Model


Porter proposes that some industries are inherently more profitable than others. e.g.
pharmaceutical company is more profitable than hospital industry. But a company can
still earn a lot of profits firm a dull industry. The key is to exploit a competitive
advantage. In any industry, five forces dictate the rule of competition. Together, these
forces determine industry profitability because they directly influence the prices
individual firms can charge, their cost structure and capital investment requirements.
To create and sustain long term profitable relation within industry, a company needs to
create a niche or used porters focus strategy, where cost of capital, investment and
structure is less as compared to profit. Creation of niche helps in strong brand recognition
in the mind of customers and also for strong, profitable and long term relations with
customers. By keeping all above discussion in mind, we are focusing towards child care
hospital by limiting age 10 years maximum. Because this niche fulfill all our require
conditions.
New Entrants:

In this section, to create a unique & future establish brand there is requirement of
high cost & capital as compared to other traditional hospitals.

High switching cost bears by hospitals due to availability of substitutes and


alternatives. But if customer satisfies than due to positive word of mouth
company experience less switching cost.

The niche targeted by our team, there is requirement of high Research &
Development expenditures.

High professionals, doctors and paramedical staff require due to sensitive


operational process.

Punjab Child Care

Page 32

GIFT Business School

Incumbents in market have more cost but they are facing less quality advantage.

High demand side for quality services.

Bring new capacity by gaining of market share by putting pressure on existing


prices.

Although there are many barriers but still there is requirement to fulfill the needs of
general public. There is hope in darkness and success is there and all this happens if we
are following the Millennium Goals Developments strategies of Pakistan.
Suppliers:
In this case suppliers are in big experience like;

Sialkot Surgical Clutter

Pharmaceuticals companies located in Lahore and Karachi

Strong supply chain management for delivery of medicines

New and innovative drugs

Availability of hospital furniture firms

Due to these players and intense competition among them the profit of that industry is
leverage. Every company has a competition to get order first and this will reduce their
bargaining power and leads towards strengthen our side. Medical companies have
standardized drugs this will helpful for our less switching cost. All of suppliers firms
seem to work as supporting companies for our hospital.
Buyers:

There are number of buyers in the market but this large volume does not debate
against poor services offer in Gujranwala. One of the reasons is the serious and
complex situation of their infants.

Punjab Child Care

Step into a healthy future

Page 33

GIFT Business School

Although Services/Products are standardize but due to hospital or doctors brand


loyalty or believe there is less switching cost on buyers part.

On the basis of quality services buyers have high switching cost.

In this niche, buyers are generally less prices sensitive but high quality sensitive.

Threat of Substitute:
In substitutes there is availability of Homeopathic, Herbal medicines, local clinics and
pharmacy stores.
Threat of substitute is moderate because of following reasons

They offer less price performances.

Buyers cost of switching is low.

Rivalry:

There is high competition among hospitals that lay down their profit margin.

Intense competition leads towards slow industry growth in Gujranwala region.

Exit barriers are high due to high investment in this field.

Low switching cost bears by buyers due to identical services served by hospitals
in Gujranwala

Fixed cost is high in initial years for any new hospital in market due to less
market repute.

Established brands earn more profit and market share not concentrated what their
services are.

Introduction:
We are constructing our final project which relates to Business Plan of Child Care
Hospital. For this purpose we conduct secondary data but for the completion of this
research many problems or difficulties in our way. To eliminate these difficulties we plan
for a primary research. In this research we target many questions like what are the
preferences of people regarding hospital features, what are their paying power, what is
the behavior of people when there is any delay in turn, how much they spend to check
from a child specialist doctor and will they ready to pay for any prompt service etc.
We are conducting this research in Gujranwala region because we are planning to build a
hospital in this city which is specialized in treatment of children diseases maximum age
of ten years. To conduct this primary research we use questionnaire methodology. The
sample size which we select is calculated as margin of error is 6%, confidence level is
94%, population size is 1578600 and distribution response is 50% by doing so we receive
a sample size of 246. The result and analysis of this research is calculated with the help
of SPSS software. Limitations and significance of study is also given in this report.
Problem Statement:
To find out peoples paying capacity, waiting capacity, treatment criteria, behavior
towards hospitals tenure and facilities required by people in hospitals that are available
or not exists.
Objectives:
Market research is a very important to make a business plan because objectives give
purpose to any study. Otherwise without defining the objectives we would not be able to
know what is suppose to be found or studied moreover why we are conducting a study.
So we firstly define our objectives to conduct the study which makes it easy for us to
study and work further giving a meaning to whatever we are doing. Objectives are given
below.

Features and characteristics that are important for a hospital near to general public
e.g. Doctors, laboratory, blood bank etc. and how they gave importance to them

Significance of the study:


As every study has its pros and cons so does our study has a great importance and
significance that can be further seen from the following points. A study without any
significance is meaningless and is not worth going ahead but the study that we have
conducted has high significance so that made us go ahead till its completion with high
confidence level.
The study has a lot of influence for any reader because it can also be used for further
study. It includes all things on reality basis.
This study aids us on the following issues:

Real population of Gujranwala and disease forecasting.

Peoples behavior towards services available in hospitals.

Importance of features that is available or missing in any hospital.

Peoples paying and waiting capacity.

Importance of media with respect to occupation in this region.

Segmentation
Child Care:
Nurturance and management of the day-to-day requirements to sustain the successful
development of children, Although the term can apply to any activity in which a
youngsters needs are provided for by a parent or guardian, it is specifically applied to
children in institutions or 24-hour group-living situations. In this context, childcare
activities include physical care (such as feeding and clothing), habit development (such
as personal hygiene and socialization), self-management (discipline), therapeutic care
(counseling), tutoring, and first aid. These activities also include running the living group
as a cohesive unit and managing the institutional program . (Barker, R.L. (2003). The social
work dictionary (5th ed.). Washington, DC: NASW

Gynecology:
The branch of medicine dealing with health care for women, especially the diagnosis and
treatment of disorders affecting the female reproductive organs.

Cardiology:
It is the study and treatment of heart disorders.
Journal of the American College of Cardiology
June 1999 (Vol. 33, Issue 7, Pages 2092-2197)

Diabetes:
A polygenic disease characterized by abnormally high glucose levels in the blood; any of
several metabolic disorders marked by excessive urination and persistent thirst. There are
two kinds of diabetes depending on whether there is a need of insulin or not.
They are called Type 1 diabetes (insulin-dependent diabetes) 'Type 1 diabetes' and Type 2
diabetes (non-insulin dependent diabetes). This latter type is more common in older
people and overweight people and can sometimes be controlled just with diet.
Weedon MN, Owen KR, Shields B, Hitman G, Walker M, McCarthy MI, et al.
Diabetes 2004; 53:3002-6
Eye diseases:
It deals with Eye conditions, Eye diseases, surgical eye procedures and vision problems.
Neurology:
Diseases affecting the brain, nervous system and spinal chord are usually diagnosed with
a neurological examination. This is not to be confused with a psychiatric examination,
which merely focuses on a patient's behavior. It is important to understand that mental
illnesses are typically classified separately from disorders of the central nervous system.
Major neurological disorders include cerebral palsy, speech and language disorders,

tumors of the brain, and movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease and
Huntington's disease.
Dentistry:
Dentistry is a broad term that is used to describe anything from the diagnosis to the
treatment of diseases that affect the oral cavity. Tooth decay is a common affliction,
which often leads to toothache and tooth loss. Regular annual dental and oral health
exams are recommended for adults past the age of 18. Within dentistry, there are many
specialties dedicated to specific areas of dental care, such as extractions, implants, and
pediatric dental care.
Dermatology:
Problems with skin and its appendages such as hair and sweat glands fall under the
category of dermatology. Dermatologists specifically treat ailments that affect that skin.
Since the skin is the largest organ, and also the most visible, cosmetic dermatology stands
as one of the most well known parts of the field. Dermatologists specializing in cosmetic
dermatology use a myriad of non-invasive procedures to improve anything from acne
scarring to the effects of aging.
Orthopedic:
Orthopedic surgery may address disorders of the musculoskeletal system, whereby
patients are unable to physically move their muscles and bones. Arthritis, trauma, and
congenital deformities can be treated by orthopedic surgery. Many subspecialties exist
under the umbrella of orthopedic surgery, such as hand surgery and spinal surgery.

Targeting
We are targeting the segment of childcare. That will be further explained as follows under
certain features:
Age:
The age group covers the newly born babies and the children up to 5 years. Therefore the
children up to the age of 5 years will be our customers.

Income level:
Our fee or charges are affordable, as derived from the survey most of the people are
willing to pay the price for a check up from the specialist. The people from the income
range from 10,000 and above. Therefore it covers the customers from all the three classes
that is upper, middle and lower class.
It was also proven with research that the people are more conscious for their childs
treatment and are willing to pay high for the best treatment and services.
Geographic:
Geographically seen the hospital in the suburb of Gujranwala on the G.T Road near
Rahwali Cantt. It is the location, which caters the people from the vicinity like
Wazirabad, Gakhar and the miniature adjoining areas.
Therefore this location does not only target the people from Gujranwala but also is
approachable for the people residing in the adjacent areas. Therefore the customers will
be scattered around the district. This location would definitely be an-add on, as it will aid
in increasing the number of customers as more people can access to the hospital.

Positioning:
We position our hospital in terms to serve the whole community and to work for the
human well being which in regard gives a rise to a healthy community. As it prospects
that healthy children will tend to give a mount to a healthy future.
We strive to serve every human being to give him an enhanced treatment that will
promote healthy living. We want to create a mind set that when people think of our
hospital they think of staying healthy and living a prosper life accommodated with on
time service delivery by keeping all the promises. This shows that we are devoting
ourselves mainly to serve the humanity and work for their betterment in terms of heath
issues and educating them simultaneously how to avoid the health problems in future.
Customers do not perceive the service quality in a uni-dimensional way but rather judge
the quality on multiple factors so positioning should also be done by keeping all t he
factors into account that will make up a certain perception. Therefore our positioning
would be done while keeping the service quality dimensions in consideration:

Five
Dimension
of service

quality

Reliability:
We want our customers to trust us to achieve their loyalty. So we will deliver what we
promise. We will not over promise to avoid mistrust of our customers and will deliver the
services by staying on our words. Like if we promise that waiting time will not go
beyond 30 min, we will thus streamline our processes in a way that will able us to serve
while keeping our promises.
Responsiveness:
The patients would be served promptly. Promptness in terms of the customer would be
attended as soon as possible. The questions, queries, complaints dealt in a swift way to
avoid the frustration and dissatisfaction among the customers.
The process of the service delivery will be well maintained and every single individual
would be trained properly so that hell be able to perform his duty in a smooth manner
without creating a barrier in the promptness of the delivery of the service.
Assurance:
This dimension is likely to be particularly important for services that customers perceive
as high risk, for services, which they feel uncertain about their ability to evaluate, and
medical is one of it, which associates high risk and is difficult to evaluate.
Therefore the inspiring trust and confidence through well knowledgeable, courteous
employees, which are capable enough to build up trust among the customers through their
efforts and devotion to satisfy their customers.
Empathy:
The empathy would be a part of our hospital by caring, individualized attention provided
to our customers. The patients would be dealt in a way that their needs are clearly
understood and they themselves feel that WE REALLY CARE. This could be achieved
by knowing the patient deeply and aspiring exactly to his needs and deal he in a way that
he finds himself the most satisfied. The patients would be dealt very courteously.

Tangibles:
This includes the appearance of physical facilities, equipment, personnel and
communication materials. Tangibles provide physical representations or images of the
service that customers, particularly new customers, will use to evaluate quality.

Therefore this dimension should not be overlooked as people create many associations
with the tangibles. So, in our hospital we will be providing a very clean and proficient
environment. The tangibles used will be in sync with the need and image of our hospital
so that both give a positive worth of it.
7 Ps
Product:
The product in our business concern would be a blend of both, the products and services.
The services can be separated in two categories.
1.

Clinical

The clinical services provided would be in a shape of doctors providing the


treatment to the patients. The patients would be checked up by the child specialist
and then would be prescribed for the medicines or related tests.
2.

Non-Clinical

The non-clinical services being provided will be:

Child Health Care Center

Special Cases & Research laboratory

Family Planning Center

Lab & X-ray Services

Blood Center only for Current Hospital

Pharmacy Center

Immunization Services like Polio, Whooping Cough, Malaria etc

Parking
The parking facility provides a major role in a success of any organization
because without parking facility it would be highly frustrating and will give a
rise to traffic blockage that gives out a very unpleasing experience and adds
into negative word of mouth.
This would be highly dissatisfying for the patients and will affect the
customers choice and decision for the next visit. Therefore a spacious parking
lot would be provided to facilitate our customers. The parking would be
outsourced to the interested contractor.

Blood Bank

A blood bank would be provided as a safety stock within the premises of our
hospital to facilitate the needy ones. This would ensure promptness and
availability of the blood in case when needed, so that the customers does not
panic in case of an emergency.
This would thus facilitate the patients to a greater extent because
unavailability of the blood causes severe problems. The blood bank would be
enriched with every blood type to ensure that the related blood is readily
available.

Laboratory

A small-scaled laboratory would be set up for small simple tests that are
referred by a doctor. This would also help out the patients that they would be
able to have the tests within the hospital. The tests would be like blood tests.

Ambulance

Ambulances would be provided in case of emergency. The patients could call


and the ambulance would be provided on the doorstep as soon as possible.
This service would be very prompt and hence this would accommodate all the

emergencies without any delay. Ambulances would be tracked down with the
co-ordination of NGOs like EDHI etc.

Caf

A caf would be provided within our hospital that will provide snacks, meals
and other related items. This would have a very neat and tidy environment.
Caf will be outsourced to any reputable contractor.

Medical store

A medical store would be available within our hospital and the patients can
purchase the medicines. The drug store would be enriched with a larger
number of medicines so that the required medicine is readily available. The
medical store would be outsourced to an interested contractor.
Unique selling Proposition (USP)/Source of competitive advantage:
USP of our hospital would be at most the prompt service delivery that unlike other
hospitals the patients does not have to wait in for long waiting hours for their turn as we
strictly have streamlined all the processes and the running of the hospital would be in a
smooth flow. This would ultimately be a result of statistically managed operations.
Secondly we have a spacious parking lot that will accommodate the patients and will tend
to avoid any mess and chaos. This facility will play a vital role in the customer
satisfaction because the research figure out that this facility is keenly important along
with the clinical services of the hospital.
Price:
We would be following the pricing strategy that is equal to competition pricing. The price
that is to be charged for the services is done while keeping the competitors into account.
The price is balanced with the market price but we will be providing more services within
the same price range. As through the research it could be seen that the fee we are going to
charge is affordable within all the classes of people as majority of the people are willing

to pay the selected price. Therefore to penetrate into the market and to cater the
customers we are supposed to deliver more for the same.
Perceptual Map:
According to the primary research the two factors that were considered as most important
in the eyes of the customers regarding a hospital were Price and Quality. These two
factors are compared when a customer makes up a certain perception regarding a
hospital. Therefore, the Hospitals are ranked according to prices they charge and quality
of service they are providing to their customers. Perceptual map is drawn after
conducting interviews with the doctors and comprehensive discussion with general public
through conducting focus groups.

Place:
The location of the hospital would be in the outer region of the city, which is
approachable to the people from the adjoining areas like Wazirabad, Gakhar etc. That is
near Rahwali Cantt near Friends hospital.
The advantage of the location is that it would be accessible to the people from the other
cities that would give an increase in the number of patients pouring in.

Consumer Buying Process


Initiator:
The initiator would be the child himself, the concerned person who senses that the patient
needs to see the doctor or should go to a hospital.
Influencer:
The influencers would be the ones who are our customers with a good and satisfactory
experience from our hospitals services and they could be the family members, friends,
etc. thus they would help others by spreading positive word of mouth and can influence
others decision by sharing their experiences and giving recommendations. The NGOs,
Doctors could also aid in this regard by recommending or giving referrals of our hospital.
Decider:
The deciders would be parents, guardians of the patient (Child) who is to take the final
decision.
Buyer:
Ultimately the buyer would be the parents normally the bread seeker of the family.
User:
Thus the patient himself would be the end user of the core service. The user would also
be the parents who will be with the child when being treated.

Promotion:
Advertising Objectives

Sustain preference.
We will continue to advertise heavily in the beginning to well inform our
customers because the initial period needs good advertising to create awareness
among the customers. Thus higher awareness and recall, the greater number of
customers could be expected.

To advertise heavily to persuade customers to buy the product.

To create strong, favorable and unique associations in the minds of the customers
to facilitate their hospitals choice.

To make the customers know that we are better than all by continuously
innovating and informing the customers about the new services.
Above the Line Activities

Above the line activities (ATL) will comprise of the print media and the digital media.
Print Media:

Daily Nawa e Waqt

Daily Jang

The print media sources that are selected above is chosen on the basis which take into
account the factors like:

Reach

Frequency

For the print media the selected sources would be to advertise in the newspapers as the
decision makers and the influencers who takes the decision or influence the decision by
referring and recommending a certain hospital would be the parents in regard, as the
decision makers would be the peers, relatives, family friends as influencers that is
explained further below. Thus, it could be observed that these people are highly exposed
towards the newspapers to seek information.

Our brochures would be enclosed within the newspapers to inform our target market and
making them aware of our hospital.
Digital media:

Sports channels

Star Plus

Sony Entertainment

News channels

Taking in consideration our target market who are ultimately the parents or the people
who are married because they are suppose to take the decision about which hospital to
visit when their children are sick. Thus according to the observation and personal
interviews it was seen that the decision makers primarily the males have a trend towards
the sports channel and news channels. Where as the females are more inclined towards
the Indian channels as Star plus and Sony Entertainment Television.
Thus taking this into account the above digital media is selected so that the final decision
makers are more exposed towards our ad, which keeps them well informed and well
aware about Punjab Child Care Hospital.
The Ad:
Our ad that will be on air will be sentimental with the emotional and empathetic touch
because this is an emotional cause that we are working for so we have to reveal a very
creative ad that can appeal to the customers needs. The ad would divulge a theme that
will be accustomed with our positioning that is A caring hospital.

Implementation Tactics:
Our hospital will be launched with intensive advertising campaign in television as well
on radio. We will primarily focus those time slots on television and radio when more
viewers and audiences watch and listen respectively to these medias. We will extend
contract with the leading doctor of the childcare hospital as an endorsement in our ad.
Paying attention to word of mouth advertisement we have focused highly on our service
delivery and customer experiences.
We will also give considerable incentives to intermediaries including the medical reps,
laboratories, NGOs etc to influence customers purchase decision in favor of our
hospital.
Below the Line Activities
Public Relations (PR):
The public relations would be made by keeping in contact with the different NGOs that
can aid us in a need. The ambulance providers would help in providing the ambulances
when required. The public relations would help in the prompt service delivery and the
availability of the required things. This will also help in a smooth working and operations
of the hospital.

Relations with the blood bank would be maintained and enhanced so that the blood type
is readily available when needed avoiding any problems due to unavailability of any
blood group.
PR Activities:
We would invite some leading Doctor Gulzar to inaugurate so that it creates some
positive secondary associations in the mind of the customers. We will invite some leading
guest speakers to speak about the health issues that will be a positive act to start with
which will be fruitful for the people. A healthy start would lead to a healthy future.
Customer Experience:
We will make it for sure that at every point of customer contact, the customers would be
given the best outcome and a pleasing moment as the sum of the pleasing moments give
out an overall positive and a happy customer experience. This will effect on the decision
for the next visit.
Relationship Marketing:
It is very important to create a close relationship with the customers because this will
lower down the probability for a customer to switch to any other hospital because
according to a research this will uncover specific types of relational benefits that
customers can experience as Confidence benefits, Social Benefits.
(P.Gwinner, D.D. Gremler, and M.J. Bitner, Relational Benefits in Service Industries. Journal of
the Academy of Marketing Science 26 (Spring1998), pp.101-14.)

Thus the aim of our hospital would be to first acquire the customer, satisfy him with the
services and providing him with the pleasing moments. Retain him and enhance the
relationship with the customer.
We would create strong relationship with our customers by giving them frequent calls,
taking the feedback through small interviews by the employees, doctors himself, by

giving the customers an open way to drop in their complaints. A proper database of our
customers would be maintained.
Therefore the advantages that are customers benefited from will give a rise to the firms
benefits. This can be explained as:

Confidence benefits:

When our hospital will create a close relation with the customers, the customers
will show trust or confidence in our services.

Social benefits:

Overtime customers develop a sense of familiarity and even a social bond with
the service provider. The customers would thus be familiar with our processes and
procedures thus making our jobs easy.
Benefits for Our Hospital:
This will aid our hospital with the following benefits:

Economic Benefits:

With the loyal customer base the main advantage will come from the
customers frequent visits, as he is less likely to switch. As the customers will
only turn to us every time he is in need, making us economically proficient as
we will be obtaining a high pocket share from the customer that in return will
lift up our revenues. This will also help in achieving an increased Customer
Lifetime Value.

In case if the prices are increased the customers still would be unlikely to
switch because of the satisfaction and loyalty towards our hospital. So we
will be able to generate more revenues. (P. Kumar, The impact of Long-

term Client Relationships on the Performance of Business Services Firms,


Journal of Service Research2 (August 1999), pp.4-18)

Customer Behavior Benefits:

The foremost contribution a loyal customer can provide to our hospital would
be free advertising provided through word-of-mouth communication.
Therefore our loyal and satisfied customers will provide strong word-ofmouth endorsements. This form of advertising can be more effective than any
paid advertising that the firm might use, as it has the added benefit of reducing
the costs of attracting new customers. As our service falls in the continuum of
high risk, which is difficult to evaluate so here the word of mouth advertising,
is more effective as people can trust and rely more on practical experiences.
In addition to this the patients who are loyal towards our hospital would
provide encouragement and emotional support to the patients who are under
treatment from our hospital.
Loyal customers may serve as mentors because of their experience with the
provider that is help other customers understand stated rules, processes of our
hospital.

Human Resource Management Benefits:

The loyal customers are thus the frequent customers. Therefore they would be
well aware of the processes and the procedures of our hospital. Thus they
would assist in the service delivery making the job easier for a service
employee. For instance, a regular patient of our hospital will know about how
our hospitals system would work. He would know about to bring in his
medication with him on his visit, know how to pay (through check or cash) as
no credit cards accepted etc.
The employees who frequently interact with the patients thus will not take
much time to process and the employees would be retained, as loyal

customers are the happy customers, which make happy employees. Thus it is
easy to work with the firms who have happy and loyal customers because this
will avoid frustration and makes the job easy.
As employees stay with the firm longer, service quality improves and costs
of turnover are reduced, adding further to profits.
(L.L. Price, E.J. Arnould, and A.Hausman, Commercial Friendships: Service
Provider-Client Relationship Dynamics, in Frontiers in Services. ed. R.T. Rust and
R.L. Oliver (Nashville: Vanderbilt University, 1996)

Promotional Activities:
The promotional activities are always vital for the smooth working of any organization as
it helps to push up sales and it helps to tempt the customers. The promotional activities in
our hospital would be:

Free medical camps:

Free medical camps would be placed at the places where people from the different
vicinities can come and take the benefit of the free consultation and check ups.
Camps would be located at the distant places where the people residing at
unapproachable places can be benefited. It could also be a solution to the poor who
cannot afford to visit a hospital for the treatment. This would help to create goodwill
and would be an ad on towards building up a strong and positive reputation.

Stalls at the exhibitions:

We will put up stalls at the leading exhibitions to make people more aware of the
hospital providing them with the free consultation and charging less than normal for
checkups, like setting up a medical stall at EXPO Centre exhibition which is a leading
Centre of exhibiting the brands from the overall Pakistan. People can thus once be
delighted and satisfied they can be our permanent customers. Secondly, they can be a
source for positive word of advertising by spreading the positive name of our

hospital. Word of mouth advertising is seen as the most influencing media for the
hospitals as people rely more on real based experiences and that is more believable
than simply hearing the electronic ads.

Conducting Seminars:

To promote our hospital and to increase the awareness among people, seminars can be
conducted on health issues by providing the people with a concrete solution and
educating them side by side about being healthy and nutritious.
Pull Strategy:
All the above and following mentioned advertisement and promotional strategy tends to
create a pull from customers end. There are not many children hospitals available in our
region Gujranwala. Therefore the people who are deprived of this facility will be tempted
towards our hospital. The media endeavors will help us to attract people towards our
hospital by creatively promoting our hospital by giving pleasing and satisfying
experiences to our customers that will aid in spreading out positive word of mouth.
People:
People play a vital role in the success of any organization because people are supposed to
run any organization and acts as a backbone. So if the right people are hired, and are
organized well in their roles, this would help to achieve the desired goals. The employees
would be delegated certain authority, this will aid the speed of delivery positively. If the
people do not fulfill their duties and does not take the responsibilities on their shoulders
the smooth working of the organization would never take place and everything will go
out of order that will result in the mismanagement and eventually the customers will get
frustrated and dissatisfied. Therefore the processes, procedures will only work in a flow
when the people are professionals and are well trained who work with devotion, as they
are the ones who manage the processes and procedures within any organization. So we
are going to hire the right people who are to be organized into appropriate roles and
would be trained accordingly when necessary.

Service Recovery:
The service recovery will be incorporated well in our practices. As each employee would
be trained enough to manage his actions, and take corrective actions where he think he
couldnt perform his duty up to the standards. The patient would be compensated
according to the service failure in order to keep him satisfied.
The service failure can occur by a number of reasons like:

The service delivered too late or too slowly,

The outcome maybe incorrect or poorly executed

Employees maybe rude or uncaring

Therefore this will result in negative word of mouth with negative feelings and responses
from the customers.
If the service recovery is absent this would result in:

Loosing out customers.

Telling other customers about negative experiences

Thus it could be seen from the above factors that how important is the service
recovery for any of the organization.

Thus the service recovery strategies for our hospital would be:

Act Quickly

Provide
Adequate
Explanations

Cultivate
relationships
with customers

Treat Customers
Fairly

Encourage and
track
complaints

Act Quickly:
If a problem is detected that somewhere something went wrong the first person who sees
or hear about that should take a prompt action that recovers the situation. If that particular
person is unable or unauthorized to take the action will swiftly notify the concerned
person who can take an action in regard. Thus, all the employees would be trained to
tackle the problems and somehow would be empowered to take swift action in case of a
failure of the service delivery. For instance, if you already know that the doctor would be
late, here a prompt action can be taken, the people waiting already can be offered a cup of
tea and told earlier that they have to wait a little and should be well informed with the
entire situation.
Cultivate Relationships with the Customers:
Those customers who have a strong relationship with the organization are more forgiving
and avoid negative word of mouth therefore relationship marketing is very important to
retain the customers.

It could be seen from a research that strong customer-firm relationships can help
shield the firm from the negative effects of failures on customer satisfaction. (T.
DeWitt and M.K Brady, Rethinking Service Recovery Strategies. Journal of Service
Recovery search 6 (November 2003), pp.193-207.)
Encourage and track complaints:
We will be providing e-mail, toll free number and a complaint box that will help us to
figure out the complaints and the points of dissatisfaction. The doctors and the employees
would also take the feedbacks from the patients through small interviews, surveys so that
the points can be eliminated and the services further refined. This would also be done by
developing a mind set that complaints are good. This has to be done within the hospital so
that the employees can take good care of it.
Provide Adequate Explanations:
Research suggests that when the firms ability to provide an adequate outcome is not
successful, further dissatisfaction can be reduced if an adequate explanation is
provided to the customer. (J. Dunning, A. Pecotich, and A. O Cass, What Happens
When Things Go Wrong. Retail Sales Explanations and Their Effects, Psychology and
Marketing21, no.7 (2004), pp.553-72)
The customer would be explained and will make the customer understand very
courteously with the help of the relevant facts, pertinent information and factors that led
to the failure. If the customers would be left unexplained, this will definitely be a loss at
our side. So to attain their loyalty and to keep them attached with our hospital we have to
keep involve them with our organization as much as possible.
Treat Customers Fairly:
Each customer should be treated fairly and get the equitable share of the services. This
would relatively keep the customers satisfy.

Process:
The processes would be streamlined and would be followed smoothly with certain rules
and policies. Like when a patient enters in an entry by his name has to be passed in the
system. Then he would be allotted a number and the patients would be checked only on
their turn. This would help to avoid any chaos and would aid in smooth working.
Physical evidence:
The physical evidence, the tangibles would be in sync with the positioning and the
desired image that is to be created. So, a very clean, professional, and a well-managed
environment will be provided to the patients where computerized records will be
maintained. Posters would be pasted on the walls giving instructions about how to stay
healthy. Patients would be dealt very courteously that will portray empathy.

Market Penetration:
We aim to achieve growth with existing products in current market segment aiming to
increase its market share. Therefore we are seeking market penetration strategy with
penetration pricing so that we can capture an attractive number of customers.
Product Development:
After a passage of time when we can figure out that due to the Millennium Development
Goals the mortality rate is decreasing, thus to maintain our revenues and profits, we will
offer new services according to the requirement of the society. For instance the services
that are not yet present in Gujranwala and are demanded that can be seen with the help of
conducting a research, like providing a facility of nutritionist.
Market Development:
After a certain passage of time when we will generate our positive goodwill and be a
strong entity with a reputable brand name, we will extend with the same setup to the
other markets where there is a demand of child care. We will also set up laboratories with
our brand name in other areas so that we can facilitate a large number of people with our
services.
Diversification:
This would be seen in future, we will diversify if there is a need or if a research suggests.

A comprehensive sale forecast is done on the basis primary and secondary research. The total cases in year 2009 are 20,297, which are
obtained from the exibhit-1, According to the PSLM (2004-05) as many as, 77% households consult the private sector against only
23% to the public sector, so by divining 20,297 with the 77%, well obtain the figure of those cases which will consult the private
sector for their treatment. 15,628 cases will consult private sector for their treatment. Now according to the primary research, which
include interviews with the child specialists and observation into different kind of child care hospitals of Gujranwala and Lahore. We

come to know some facts which are 8% of the total cases arrive in the months of December and January, and 6% of the total cases
arrive from February to May, and October to November. 10% of the total cases arrive in months of June and September, 14% of the
whole cases arrive in the month of July and August. We can see there is cyclic kind of pattern in the arrival of cases in the child care
hospitals. There are many reasons of this cyclic demand, if we see a sudden rise of cases in the month of July and August, this is due
to the combination of summer and rainy season.
Because children cant tolerate the sudden change and intensity of the weather. According our primary research we come to know that
there are 28.1% of the whole populations had gone to a child care hospital for the treatment of their children. This comes into the
consumer preferences section that 28.1% of the people will prefer to go to a child care hospital, or the pattern of the indoor cases are
28.1% of the whole population. So by dividing the whole patients of the each month with the 28.1%, we obtain the total number of
cases that will arrive into the child care hospitals of the Gujranwala. The next step is to narrow those cases that will arrive into our
hospital, so well divide the patients for child care hospital by total competitors which are admitting kids in their hospital. So
according to our research there are total 10 competitors some of them are huge and some of them are nothing. Moreover we are at
number 11 in child care industry of Gujranwala.

Total cases are 20,297 in the year of 2009. Multiplied with 77% which means, 77% of the household are prefer to consult private
sector for their treatment. So the probability of the arrival of the cases is same. As we explained in the section of indoor cases, this
percentage is carefully selected after a comprehensive discussion with the experts of child care industry. Here now 60% of the people
are those which consult an allopathic doctor for the treatment of their kids. Now divide all those cases which are for the allopathic
doctor with the 5, which means we are at the number 5 in that area, there are total 4 child specialist, 2 are in hospitals and rest of the
specialists are running their private clinics in that area. Our charges are Rs.300 for check-up, which are equal to most of the child
specialists in that area, where we are opening our hospital. So there is equally chance for us to serve the patients of that particular area.

Our location is at the G.T Road 2-KM from Aziz Crossing. It is accessible from the vicinities of the Gujranwala. So it is expected that
40patients per day will arrive in our hospital from the vicinities of Gujranwala, Which are Wazirabad, Gakhar, Gujrat and Etc. Because
we are accessible due to our presence at G.T Road.
Moreover due to our Advertisement Campaigns and Positive word of mouth, 1 case will be increase per day and 30 customers will
increase in each month. there are some patients which are asked to come again for the second check-up after some days, they are also
included in this section.

Expected Weekly Outdoor Cases:


This is the weekly distribution of cases that will arrive in the each month of the year 2009. For each week the distribution is equal, we
obtain this figure by dividing whole patients from the each month by 4. With the assumption of 4 weeks in a month.

Operational Plan
Operational Plan includes Process Diagram & Explanation, Locations Analysis, Facility
Layout, Inventory Management, and Weekly Schedule of Doctors.
Process Diagram & Explanation:
From the patients perspective, there are three types of cases. These scenarios are explains
one by one as under.
Scenario 1:
It illustrates four processes known as patients then diagnosis then medical store and at

This room is like a ward. This room is for the babies having age less than one month.
This room is divided into three different portions. One is feeding room and the next one
is nursing room and the last one is nursery ward. Nursery ward covers the larger area as
compared to feeding and nursery room. Nursery ward consist four machines known as
incubator for premature baby, informer for maintaining the temperature, sucker for
controlling the breath and phototherapy machine. It is also air conditions room. It also
contains patients beds, IV stands etc.
Laboratory:
It is on the right corner. The purpose is to facilitate the peoples by doing different test
which will help in diagnoses. Different machines will use in order to do test known as
chemistry analyzer machine, microscope machine, sandifuge machine and water bath
machine. There will also be other accessories of laboratory known as regents, glass tubes,
flasks etc.

Inventory Management:
Patients are considered as inventory in hospital industry. We managed inventory per 4hours basis, to make sure that no patient will
wait for his/her turn more than 30min. Which is one of our competitive edge. After comprehensive discussion with the child specialists
from Gujranwala and Lahore, we conclude that 15% of the daily cases arrive in the child hospitals from 8:00am to 12:00pm, 30% of
the patients arrive from 12:01pm to 4:00pm and from 4:01pm to 8:00pm. 20% of the cases arrive from 8:01pm to 12am, and only 5%
of the patients arrive for check-up at late night. Sum of daily indoor and outdoor patients are considered as the total daily patients and
are distributed according to their percentages which are assigned after the discussion with the child specialists.

the doctors to follow our vocational plan will be discussed in the Human Resource Plan.

recent developments in their respected fields. The results would highlight the
discrepancies upon which they can be trained through in-house conferences, or allowed

Compensation and Benefits:


Our benefits for staff include ways of working that fit in with the personal responsibilities

holidays opportunity and would be compensated (5% respected salary) for that.

Paramedical staff: 1-week holiday. No public holidays.

However an emergency leave with approval would always be accepted at times of urgent
and unforeseen need by the provision of paid or unpaid leave, according to the
circumstances

Financial Benefits:
We would be keen to support staff with a number of financial benefits and advice provided directly by the child care administration. They include
1. Provident Schemes: On retirement they would get provident fund, which would
be based on their salary at retirement. Staff would contribute of 6% per month.
The ADMIN would contribute an additional 6% of their respective salaries
towards the pension.

charge, the rest 75% would be contributed by the hospital.

3. Staff Health Centre: Dignity at Work: to tackle discrimination and harassment


and therefore improve diversity.

rules and policies would be very helpful to fulfill our mission and to create the good
name of our child care centre.
1: Appearance: Professionalism is at the core of identity. The appearance of doctors and

other staff should be professional by their appearance and by their acts to contribute the
in the core identity of hospital.

Dress of the staff:


Doctors wear a white long on their dress there is no uniform restriction for the medical
staff expects a white coat. The logo of the hospital would be printed on the right side of
front of the coat.

Non medical staff:

Nurses: their dress would be white shalwar kameez with blue scarf and would
take green scarf for the identification of her seniority.

Ward boys: blue suite (V-neck T- shirt with trousers) with logo print on their
backs.

There is not any restriction on wearing the uniform for the staff other than doctors and
paramedical staff.
Medical Ethics:
Confidentiality, Data Protection, computer use and patient records
Confidentiality:
ALL child care staff is expected to be familiar with the Confidentiality and Data
Protection policies and procedures.

It places great emphasis on the need for the strictest confidentiality in respect of
personal health data. This applies to manual and computer records and
conversations about patients' treatments. Everyone working is under a legal duty
to keep patients' information, held in whatever form, confidential.

Patient information, as well as obvious material such as medical records, includes


non-health information (e.g. a patients name, address, date of birth, details of
his or her financial or domestic circumstances) provided by the patient, and added
to by staff, a relative or other person.

Patients have a right to know what is happening to their information. Posters and
leaflets advising patients of uses of their information should be displayed in
public areas.

Patients can request a copy of personal information held about them.

Deceased patients' information is also treated as confidential. Disclosure of


deceased patients' information must be a matter for individual decision by the
clinician.

Data Protection Principles:


Personal data shall be adequate, relevant and not excessive in relation to the purpose(s)
for which they are processed.

Personal data shall be accurate and where necessary kept up to date.

Personal data processed for any purpose(s) shall not be kept for longer than is
necessary for that purpose.

Justify the purpose: every proposed use or transfer of patient-identifiable


information within or from an organization should be clearly defined and
scrutinized, with continuing uses regularly reviewed by an appropriate guardian.

Don't use patient-identifiable information unless it is absolutely necessary:


Patient-identifiable information items should not be used unless there is no
alternative.

Use the minimum necessary patient-identifiable information: where use of


patient-identifiable information is considered to be essential, each individual item
of information should be justified with the aim of reducing identifiably.

Access to patient-identifiable information should be on a strict need to know


basis: Only those individuals who need access to patient-identifiable information
should have access to it, and they should only have access to the information
items that they need to see.

Everyone should be aware of their responsibilities: Action should be taken to


ensure that those handling patient-identifiable information - both clinical and nonclinical staff - are aware of their responsibilities and obligations to respect patient

confidentiality. Failure to maintain patient information in a confidential manner


can result in disciplinary proceedings being taken against a member of staff

Computer Use: Computers are used only for treatment purposes, are password
protected, virus checked and measures are taken to prevent access via e-mail or
the Internet, unauthorized access and integrity of data is clearly protected.

All information recorded on the computer system must be in real-time. For


example, this ensures that when beds are available the Bed Managers are aware of
them.

Patient Records: All patient information must be checked for accuracy each time
the patient attends an appointment or is admitted. It is imperative that the patients
correct general practitioner (GP) is recorded so that follow up information can be
sent to him/her. Next-of-kin and emergency telephone numbers must always be
checked and recorded on the computer as well as in the patients' case-notes.

Policies for Incomings:


People entering the Hospital must switch off their mobile telephones because these
phones can adversely affect some of the medical equipment in the Hospital.
The Hospital has a No Smoking policy, which means that smoking is not allowed
anywhere inside the buildings. This applies to patients, visitors and staff. Because
smoking damages the health of smokers and non-smokers, tobacco is not sold on the
premises.
Emergency:

A number of Emergency patients do not require a proper admission procedure


to admit in the hospital. These patients must be having emergency forms
before admitted to a hospital bed or wait in Emergency.

Time Consult: A Capital Health policy has been developed which would
ensure specialists provide a consult to patients in Emergency within 1- hours
of the request. Less time awaiting consultation means patients are provided

with the next level of care sooner and beds in Emergency becomes available
faster.

Liaison Nurse: The hours that a nurse is available to communicate between


patients in the Emergency waiting room and Emergency Department staff
would be increased. By enabling more communication between those waiting
for care and those delivering care, both patients and physicians have access to
timely and relevant information.

Infection Control: More ward boys would be added so that areas where
patients with infections are treated can be cleaned quickly to reduce
turnaround time for beds. As well, more educational support would be
provided to staff in ways to reduce the risk of infection.

Discharge Lounge: Patients at the DGH who have been discharged from an
inpatient unit and are awaiting family/friends to take them home would wait in
a lounge rather than a hospital bed.

Information Systems: An Emergency Department Information System is


currently being implemented. Real-time wait time information would improve
performance over the short-term.

Recruitment & Placement:


Our child care centre would be staffed with 12 registered nurses alert in different areas of
the hospital, two full-time child specialist, for each shift, a lady gynecologist, medical
superintend, and some consultants, all of them with long experience in child care.

Job Analysis
Personnel Planning & Recruiting:
Applicants would be welcomed throughout the year (only specialists). Other staff is
invited in the specific month in a year according to the requirement. On spot selection
test, the applicant would wait for confirmation call (if qualified the test) and would then

be given interview date. Advertisements would be issued based on the number of


vacancies available.
Contract:
A year contract - more like a permanent job but every year the contract would be
reviewed followed by the performance evaluation.

Schedule:
The hospital would be 24 hr - 7 days a week service provider. The permanent
faculty that includes administration working under the specific functional units
would be required to pay services from 8 am till 4pm every day.
1. Two shifts of doctors would be there to fulfill the requirement of giving 24-hrs
services. There would be two doctors at the same time and in the second shift
the other two. Every doctor at the beginning would have to define his hours of
work every day completing a total of 8 hrs /day.
2. Paramedical staff: basically the24 hr day would be also divided into 2 shifts.
Every staff member would be rotated around all the two-shift hrs weekly
shifting schedules would be displayed on the staff boards.

performance toward their work they show and knowledge they gain in a specific period
of time. This change in the title will also increase in their salary.
The fields which are up to the Medical Officer have the purpose when business expand
and the hospital is able to make a medical school or college then it required professors
which we would already have with the help of giving them opportunities to more
knowledge internationally as well as nationally.
