# Welfare & Zakat

> Support for deserving patients, applied on the bill

Group: Patient Access · Page: https://softhmis.com/modules/welfare-zakat

Assesses deserving patients, applies zakat or welfare support to their invoices and records donations — with an assessment form, assets and liabilities, thumbprint capture, a zakat dashboard and a printable zakat card.

## The problem it solves

Welfare and zakat support given on paper cannot be reconciled against the bill, the same visit can be supported twice, and donors never see a proper receipt.

## Key features

- Welfare assessment form: applicant and guardian, CNIC, income, family size and earners, housing and rent, profession and validity period
- Asset and liability tables from a coded master
- Patient thumbprint capture with a DigitalPersona (U.are.U) reader (reader and its client software required on the PC)
- Support linked to visits and services, with discount percentage, approving authority and donation type
- The same visit cannot be supported twice
- Zakat dashboard: patients served, supported and pending, and total support by patient and payment type
- Zakat report and printable zakat card
- Donation receipts with donor, type, payment mode or cheque, currency and receipt book number

## What your facility gains

- Approved support is applied directly on the patient invoice
- Assessment evidence — income, assets, liabilities and thumbprint — stays on file
- Zakat funds are accounted for by patient and payment type
- Donations are receipted with a receipt book number

## Workflow

1. **Patient** — Visits and services selected for support.
2. **Assessment** — Income, family, housing, assets and liabilities recorded.
3. **Thumbprint** — Captured with the fingerprint reader.
4. **Approve** — Discount percentage and authority set.
5. **Applied** — Support appears on the patient invoice.
