The request was successful.
From: Paul White
Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,
An ACC client saw in there injury claim file a recent note indicating all communicatiosn with the client must go thru Mr Fogarty. The client has a recovery partner and has never dealt with or heard of a Mr Fogarty. From inquiries made the client it is unclear whether Mr Fogarty is an employee or had been an employee, or why was he involved in the clients case.
I ask you to confirm, since June 2022 has ACC employed or contracted the services of a Michael Fogarty and if so what role was he employed in or the scope of works he was contracted to do.
Yours faithfully,
Paul White

Thank you Sara,
Please provide further clarification, as I understand Mr Fogarty is a Recovery Partner, this role was originally a case manager,. now a Recovery Partner, the role is to work together with a client including achieving the rehabilitation goals.
I would like to understand why Mr Fogarty is a “Recovery Partner”, however he is not allocated any claims to manage, so he is not a partner with any clients.
So what is Mr Fogarty’s role within this business unit?
Yours sincerely,
Paul White
