If you search for this hospital on Google Maps, the pin that comes up is labelled "Modern District Headquarters Hospital, Khagrachari" - which tells you something interesting right away. In Bangladesh, a number of district and upazila-level government hospitals officially carry the word "Adhunik" (Modern) in their name, usually marking a specific generation of hospital-building projects rather than any special claim to being cutting-edge. Khagrachari's version of that naming pattern sits on Dighinala Road in Khagrachhari Sadar, the small hill town that serves as headquarters for one of the three Chittagong Hill Tracts districts - alongside Rangamati and Bandarban - bordering India's Tripura state to the north.
Khagrachari Sadar itself is a genuinely mixed town, home to just over 136,000 people according to the 2022 census, split fairly evenly between Muslim and Buddhist residents with a meaningful Hindu population too, reflecting the district's role as one of Bangladesh's most ethnically diverse corners - Chakma, Marma, Tripura, and Bengali communities all call this hill district home. That diversity, and the hilly, sometimes difficult terrain connecting Khagrachari's more remote upazilas to its town centre, is part of why this hospital matters more than a typical district facility might in the flatlands.
No specific founding date for the hospital could be confirmed from any source checked - please verify. Given how many Bangladeshi district hospitals of this era share a similar institutional origin story (small dispensary, then formalised as a modest-bed government hospital sometime after their district's own administrative formation), Khagrachari's version of that history likely follows a similar pattern, but nothing specific enough to state confidently turned up in the sources available.

(Given how hilly and sometimes remote parts of this district are, calling ahead before travelling any real distance is a genuinely sensible habit here)
Founded: Could not be confirmed from any source checked - please verify.
Speciality: Serves as Khagrachari district's main government hospital, the primary referral point for a genuinely diverse hill population spread across a district bordering India, where terrain alone can make reaching more advanced care in Chittagong a long journey.
Number of Beds: Referred to as a 100-bed facility in available directory listings, though this figure carries the same caveats as similar third-party sources elsewhere and is worth confirming directly with the hospital - please verify.
Departments: Medicine, General Surgery, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Paediatrics, Orthopaedics, Emergency Medicine. As with any government hospital serving a spread-out, hilly district, specialist presence on a given day depends on the duty roster, so calling ahead matters more here than in a well-connected flatland town.
Popular Treatments: General medical consultation, emergency and casualty care, maternal and childbirth services, paediatric treatment, orthopaedic and fracture care, basic diagnostic testing.
Doctor List
No department-wise doctor list could be found in any reliable online source. Given the distances some patients in this district travel to reach Khagrachari town, confirming which doctors are on duty by phone before setting out is genuinely worth the effort. - please verify
OPD Consultation
Emergency and Casualty department
Indoor Admission
Basic Operation Theatre facilities
Diagnostic services - Pathology, X-ray, Ultrasound
Pharmacy
Whether the hospital currently runs an ICU, a functioning blood bank, or more advanced diagnostic equipment could not be confirmed with confidence - please verify by calling the hospital directly.
OPD Timing
Following the general pattern for government hospitals in Bangladesh: 8:00 AM to 2:30 PM, except on government holidays.
This is the standard schedule rather than one specifically confirmed for this hospital - please verify by calling ahead or checking with the hospital directly, especially if travelling in from outside Khagrachhari Sadar.
The hospital sits on Dighinala Road within Khagrachhari Sadar, the district's compact hill-town headquarters. If you are coming from Chittagong, the road winds through hill country for a good stretch of the journey; if you are coming from one of the district's more remote upazilas, plan for a longer trip than the map distance alone might suggest, given the terrain.
