💰 Transparent Ambulance Fare Structure
Our fares are distance‑based and fully disclosed upfront. You only pay for the kilometers traveled — no hidden charges. The type of ambulance and the total distance determine the final cost. For all routes exceeding 300 km, we apply a flat rate of PKR 80/km regardless of the ambulance model .
| Distance Range | Rate per Kilometer | Applicable for | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 300 km | PKR 80 – 120/km | BLS, ALS, ICU ambulances | Varies by vehicle type and medical staff |
| Above 300 km (Islamabad → KPK) | PKR 80/km | All ambulance types | Flat long‑distance rate, no surcharge |
Example: Islamabad to Peshawar (~180 km) may cost 80–120 PKR/km depending on the ambulance chosen. Islamabad to Chitral (~550 km) automatically qualifies for the flat 80 PKR/km.
🗺️ KPK Destinations: Distance & Estimated Fare (80 PKR/km)
Below are approximate road distances from Islamabad International Hospital to major KPK cities. Because all these journeys (except Peshawar, which is just under 300 km?) actually Peshawar is about 180 km, so it falls under the 80–120 rate; but for destinations like Swat, Mardan? Wait, Mardan is ~160 km. Let’s clarify: For distances over 300 km, the flat 80 PKR applies. Many KPK cities are within 200 km — so they get the variable rate. Here’s a detailed table:
| Destination (KPK) | Approx. Distance (km) | Applicable Rate | Estimated Fare* (BLS) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Peshawar | 180 km | PKR 80-120/km | PKR 14,400 – 21,600 |
| Mardan | 160 km | PKR 80-120/km | PKR 12,800 – 19,200 |
| Abbottabad | 120 km | PKR 80-120/km | PKR 9,600 – 14,400 |
| Swat (Mingora) | 280 km | PKR 80-120/km | PKR 22,400 – 33,600 |
| Kohat | 150 km | PKR 80-120/km | PKR 12,000 – 18,000 |
| Dera Ismail Khan | 360 km | PKR 80/km | PKR 28,800 |
| Chitral | 550 km | PKR 80/km | PKR 44,000 |
| Bannu | 330 km | PKR 80/km | PKR 26,400 |
*Fares are indicative based on BLS ambulance. ALS/ICU may be at higher end of 80–120 band. For trips >300 km, the flat 80 PKR applies to any ambulance type, giving you premium care at a reduced rate.
🚑 Ambulance Options & Equipment
We offer three types of ambulances to match patient acuity. All are staffed with trained medical personnel and equipped per international standards.
| Ambulance Type | Medical Equipment & Staff | Standard Rate/km (<300 km) |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Life Support (BLS) | Oxygen cylinder, stretcher, first aid kit, EMT | PKR 80–90 |
| Advanced Life Support (ALS) | Cardiac monitor, defibrillator, medications, paramedic | PKR 100–110 |
| Critical Care / ICU Ambulance | Ventilator, infusion pumps, multi‑parameter monitor, nurse + paramedic | PKR 110–120 |
For distances >300 km, all the above are charged at the uniform PKR 80/km — that means you can get an ICU ambulance for the same price as a BLS when traveling long‑distance.
