Roles, delegated authorities, and HR documents for clinical staff - non SCAs
Bruce made this Official Information request to Accident Compensation Corporation
This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Bruce to read recent responses and update the status.
From: Bruce
Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,
I am a New Zealand citizen. This is a request for information under the OIA.
In response GOV-032950, ACC provided a copy of the document titled “Annual Practising Certificate Review Process Clinical Staff at ACC.” The background section (page 1) states:
"This document sets out the Annual Practising Certificate (APC) compliance and annual review requirements for all ACC clinical staff in Clinical Services, Health Partnerships, and Specialist Cover Assessment (SCA), where there is a business need for them to maintain their currency in clinical practice.
Current APCs ensure that advisors provide credible quality clinical advice and/or can make robust clinical quality cover decisions.
Each professional body has a requirement for Clinicians to hold a current APC to continue in clinical practice. One prerequisite to maintaining an APC is the evidence of on-going continuing professional development (CPD).
While it is the employee’s responsibility to ensure that they have a current APC, as the employer it is appropriate process for ACC to check annually to ensure that they still have a current APC."
In response GOV- 028256, ACC provided copies of two collective agreements that were valid from 1 July 2023 to 31 March 2024. These were titled “Psychology Advisors Collective Agreement” and titled “Medical Advisors Collective Agreement”. I am not requesting those documents.
I request the following information from 2000 to present:
(1) the job title of employees who were required to maintain a current practicing certificate from a health authority; and
(2) the job title of employees who had the delegated authority to make clinical cover decisions.
The following requests are for information related to each of the job titles in (1) and (2) above, but not including SCAs, SCA Team Leaders, or their previous job titles. [See my earlier request for those details.]
I request:
(a) the dates that that job title was was being used by ACC; and
(b) copies of the job descriptions for each of the job titles and the dates that job description was valid; and
(c) copies of the the collective agreements for each of the job titles and the dates that the collective agreement was in effect; and
(d) copies of the delegation framework documents for the job titles in and the dates the delegation framework was in effect.
Thank you.
Bruce
