Jinnah Medical College Hospital
provides subsidized hospitalization, nursing,
general medical and specialist services to
all patients. 'Out-Patient are charged Rs.
20/= for providing two days medicines.
Admitted patients are expected to bear the
cost of medicines, diagnostic tests and materials
used in the operation theatre. Four out of
ten patients cannot afford to pay anything.
The annual subsidy of Rs.8.4million provided
by the S.M.SOHAIL TRUST is not sufficient
to meet the running cost of the hospital.
The students and faculty of Jinnah Medical

a patient welfare association in the name
of CARE' which receives
donation from individuals and firms to provide
for medicines and supplies to patients. The
Trust has also established a ZAKAT
fund.

gratefully accepted and used for the well
being of the patients.
It is our motto and endeavour that
no patient is returned for lack of financial
means.
