Spinal Fusion Procedures

Dave Body made this Official Information request to Accident Compensation Corporation

The request was successful.

From: Dave Body

Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,

I would be grateful if you would please provide me with the following information for each of the last 3 years, ending 30 June 2016.

1. The number of spinal fusion procedures (lumbar and cervical) funded by ACC and performed by DHB's; and

2. The number of spinal fusion procedures (lumbar and cervical) funded by ACC and performed by private hospitals.

Under s16(2) of the Official Information Act, my preferred way of receiving a response is by email to the address from which ACC received the original request, not by post.

Yours faithfully,

Dave Body
