Is it permissible to take money from patients in exchange for free healthcare services provided by the state, in order to use it to purchase other medical supplies that serve the patients' best interests, while recording this in the registers under the names of other non-free services to avoid legal accountability?
Officials are not allowed to obligate patients to pay money in exchange for their use of things provided freely by the state, in order to purchase other things for them. Rather, officials must be informed to provide what is necessary for patients free of charge or to decide whether to obligate them to pay money.
