Whether Donations received by a Cancer Patient for his Medical Treatment from his Collegues, Employer and his Other Relatives will be considered as his Income?
What do you advice to get all the donations to the Patients Bank Account or to the Hospital Account Directly ? What is the best alternative?

The best alternative is Direct Payment to the hospital. Except donations received from the relatives (relatives ; as defined U/s 56) others may be treated as income. His employer's contribution or reimbursement of medical expenses will also be exempted provided the treatment of the employee had undergone in an approved hospital.
