[spoiler]This question is as it is from one of the Kaplan Online tests. My question is: Is any of the choice correct? Shouldn't there be 'by' in choice E or is it correct to write as it is?[/spoiler]

i seems correct except that there seems to be some typo
"Like those charged other health " doesnt make sense, something is missing between charged and other...

Surprising it's a q from Kaplan.

Agree E seems to be the best of the worst.

Like those charged for health care workers seems ok but still sounds a little awkward though atleast IMO

Supposing that there was a "by" in E, would it be correct? Is it okay to use "like" as opposed to "as" in this case? Or does the "like/as" similarity come in only when examples are involved?
