Tangail 250 Bed District Hospital (also known as Tangail General Hospital) is the main government hospital serving Tangail Sadar and the wider Tangail district under Dhaka Division. It operates under the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS), Bangladesh, with the official facility code 10000647. As a public district hospital, it provides free or subsidized treatment to a large population base, since Tangail is the largest district in Dhaka Division by area and the second largest by population.
The hospital was established in 1974 with an initial capacity of 50 beds. It was later expanded to 100 beds, and subsequently to its current 250-bed capacity. The exact day and month of establishment could not be confirmed from available online sources - please verify with the hospital administration or DGHS records.
Note: This hospital is a separate institution from Tangail Medical College Hospital (formerly Sheikh Hasina Medical College Hospital), which was established in 2014 at Kodalia, Tangail, and was officially renamed in November 2024. The two should not be confused, as they operate at different locations under different administration.
