    This subpart sets forth the policies and procedures governing the 

acceptance and administration of contributions of money or property 

intended solely for the benefit of all patients in a ward or unit or a 

particular hospital or station of the Public Health Service, excluding 

outpatient clinics. Such contributions are distinguishable from (a) 

monies or other valuables belonging to specific patients which are 

accepted and held in custody for the convenience of the patient until 

such time as he or she wishes to withdraw them, and (b) gifts to the 

United States to support Public Health Service functions under section 

501 of the Public Health Service Act or other statutory provisions, 

which may be accepted and administered only in accordance with such 

statutory provisions or other applicable laws.
