President Dr Mohamed Muizzu has inaugurated the Health and Family Expo 2026.
The event, held earlier this month, features stalls from regional hospitals, city hospitals and private health providers. Organisers said the expo aims to give the public information on available services and new technologies.
Former Vice President Faisal Naseem visited the exhibition and noted the participation of hospitals from across the country. He said such events can help improve and sustain health services by sharing knowledge.
The Ministry of Health has previously announced plans to bring tertiary hospitals under unified management to reduce costs and improve efficiency. No new announcements on that structure were made at the expo.
Attendance figures have not been released. The expo continues for several days and is open to the public.
Health officials have encouraged residents to use the opportunity to learn about preventive care and specialist services available outside the capital.
