The ACC Scheme
The ACC scheme provides a comprehensive, 24 hours, no-fault cover and entitlements for all New Zealand citizens, residents and temporary visitors who suffer personal injury in New Zealand.
What does ACC cover?
ACC generally covers the treatment of personal injury – that is, a physical or mental injury caused by a physical injury, or a mental injury caused by sexual assault or abuse.
How to make a claim?
If you have been injured, the first step is to get treatment as soon as possible, don’t wait until it feels better as this can often make your injury worse and recovery longer.
Getting ACC cover is simple, visit your G.P, they will assess your injury and fill out a claim form at the time of consultation, the claim is then lodged with ACC. You will be given a referral for treatment which you then take to a registered ACC provider.
