RIYADH: Saudi Health Minister Fahad Abdulrahman AlJalajel this week honored the winners at the seventh annual Ada’a Health Awards ceremony in Riyadh, which was attended by leaders, partners and specialists from across the health sector.
AlJalajel said the Ada’a Health initiative had become one of the Kingdom’s leading transformation programs, assessing the performance of more than 2,700 healthcare facilities and producing over 70,000 analytical results that tracked clinical quality, operational efficiency, and patient safety.
The minister highlighted that healthcare providers had set a new record by conducting more than 11,300 surgeries in a single week, compared to about 2,000 weekly surgeries when the program was launched in 2018.
He added that this milestone reflected improved operational efficiency, stronger clinical planning, and reduced waiting times.
The ceremony announced winners across six specialized tracks, recognizing achievements in maternal and child care, emergency services, primary care, public health promotion, service efficiency, and lifesaving interventions.
AlJalajel said these tracks were designed to raise the quality of care and improve the overall health experience for individuals and communities.
