The process and guidelines for distributing Sadaqah donations are similar to Zakat.
Indus Hospital & Health Network provides quality care without any discrimination, free of cost through the support of your Zakat and Donations.
With the help of reputable Sharia Scholars, Indus Hospital & Health Network has developed a criterion to ascertain if Zakat is applicable to a certain individual. Whenever a patient visits the Indus Hospital, he/she goes through the assessment with IHHNβs welfare officer to determine if the patient is eligible for Zakat or not.
Once the recipient of Zakat is identified, their MR number is marked to signify that the patientβs treatment should be supported from Zakat account. The patient is requested to sign a declaration granting the Indus Hospital & Health Network permission to collect Zakat on their behalf and to use that Zakat to sponsor the treatment of his/her and/or other patients or hospital requirements. Once the patient is discharged, hospital generates an internal bill and sends it to the Zakat Committee for settlement.
Yes, you can.
The Zakat donations that we receive from our donors are distributed among Zakat eligible patients for whichever treatment they are receiving from Indus Hospital & Health Network facilities.
The operating cost of The Indus Hospital is USD 130 million. (2018-2019)
