The NUH Children's Fund provides financial support to patients of the Khoo Teck Puat – National University Children’s Medical Institute (KTP-NUCMI) at NUH, assisting those who face financial barriers to accessing necessary medical care for their children.
This sub-fund of the NUHS Fund, one of the charities under the National University Health System, ensures that no child is denied medical attention due to cost. KTP-NUCMI offers a broad spectrum of care, addressing common health issues as well as more serious conditions like kidney and liver diseases.
Medical expenses can be a significant burden, and even with government subsidies and/or private insurance, some families struggle to meet the costs. The number of such patients requiring financial aid continue to rise yearly.
Recognising this, the NUH Children’s Fund, established in 1990 and previously known as NUHkids Fund or CAP Fund, aims to alleviate such financial pressures.
