Do you accept ACC?

ACC is a New Zealand government initiative that partially subsidises the cost of treatment related to injury. The ACC defines an eligible injury to be one-off or acute repetitive event that has led to the damage of tissue within the body or mental/psychological stress.

Here are several examples of injuries eligible for ACC coverage.

• “When I was walking down stairs, I tripped, twisted my knee and now have swelling and pain”.
• “I was throwing a ball and I extended by arm and felt an intense pain in my shoulder”.
• “I had a car accident and got whiplash in my neck”.

However, injuries that don’t arise from an accident. Such as injuries resulting from illness, ageing or emotional illnesses aren’t covered.
