D Lohr made this Official Information request to Accident Compensation Corporation

The request was successful.

From: D Lohr

Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,

This question is with regards to treatment providers (GP, physiotherapist, etc) who are contracted with ACC to provide services to people who are injured.

Upon billing ACC, to receive payment treatment rendered to the injured patient, what is the average amount of time a provider should have to wait to receive payment for his treatment?

Yours faithfully,

D Lohr
