According to a press release issued here on Friday, all the Health Care Establishments (HCEs) have been directed that the PHC licensing fee should be paid through cross cheque, demand draft or pay order, issued for the Punjab Healthcare Commission, and deposit fines in the PHC selected banks only. Moreover, no person is authorised to get money under any condition or accrue any favour, and the Commission cannot be held responsible for any such transaction.
