National Investigations Unit – 
Proposal for Consultation
Sid Miller
General Manager, Claims Management
10 April 2014


 
Background
•  Review of ACC’s wider fraud capability by Deloitte in 2013, 
which indicated an almost exclusive focus on client fraud
•  New counter-fraud model developed and approved by ACC 
Executive in late 2013


 


 
Rationale for change
•  Support ACC’s organisational objectives of Financial 
Sustainability and Governance by ensuring strong internal and 
external fraud capability
•  Implement a more holistic approach to fraud and corruption 
with a focus on all areas of: Prevention; Deterrence; 
Detection; and Investigation, as part of ACC’s ‘three lines of 
defence’ model
•  Realign investigations to have a greater enterprise focus 
across ACC
•  Ensure equal attention across all four key fraud areas of: Levy 
Payer; Provider; Client; and Employee, and prioritisation of 
activity to minimise risk to ACC


 
New proposed structure
•  Unit moved to Actuarial and Risk business group
•  New name for unit – Integrity Services
