Transport for Independence Accessors
Bruce Van Essen made this Official Information request to Accident Compensation Corporation
This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Bruce Van Essen to read recent responses and update the status.
From: Bruce Van Essen
Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,
What procedures are in place with ACC for a registered Occupational Therapist who is a vendor to ACC if this vendor was to participate in a TFIA assessment for an ACC client but done on a private basis without ACC being the referrer ?
Would ACC deem it a conflict of interest if a registered Occupational Therapist who has never seen or been involved with an ACC client before was to commission a TFIA report for this ACC client but this report is done and paid for in a private capacity between the client and the OT without any referral or interference from ACC.
Yours faithfully,
Bruce Van Essen

Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,
I sent the above request 3 weeks ago but have received no response if ACC is processing the request.
Can I please query if the request is being processed and when I may expect an answer to the request.
Yours faithfully,
Bruce Van Essen

Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,
