Anthony Jordan made this Official Information request to Accident Compensation Corporation

The request was successful.

From: Anthony Jordan

Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,

Thank you for earlier information released via FYI.org.nz regarding 'Dual Role Assessors'.

Further to this, please provide the following:

1/ Does the Corporation advise claimants, at time of making any referral to a Contracted Provider, of Provider having what could be subjectively a conflict of interest i.e. where the assessor is obligated to advice Claimant, does the Corporation itself initiate such a disclosure right from the outset

2/ With reference to the above. If not, why not

Yours faithfully,

Anthony Jordan
