Mental Injury Cover Part B
Gladys Webster made this Official Information request to Accident Compensation Corporation
The request was successful.
From: Gladys Webster
Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,
Re: Act Requirements (The 2001 Act) and law.
The Act provides clients with cover for 'mental or nervous shock.' It would appear that SCU TCM and BAP's translate this to mean ACC in most cases will provide cover for PTSD. Is this the same as what the Act means? Please explain.
Yours faithfully,
pp Gladys Webster
From: Gladys Webster

When was the term mental or nervous shock (Act 2001) removed from clients "Mental injury or diagnosis?
Yours faithfully,
