Health and Child Care minister David Parirenyatwa is today set to be grilled by the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Public Accounts over the $100 000 advance payment he allegedly received from the Premier Medical Aid Society (PSMAS).

Parirenyatwa has insisted that the payment was done following proper procedure as it was due to his private surgery, and added that he only agreed to reimburse it following an outcry from the public, which misunderstood the relationship that existed between medical practitioners and medical insurers.
