The request was successful.
From: James Sullivan
Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,
I would like to request a list of all treatments that the ACC funds under the category of Alternative Medicine. Such items can include acupuncture, homeopathy and traditional Chinese medicine. But are not limited to just this. This category of treatments can also be known by the names of Holistic Medicine, and Integrative Medicine.
I would also like to request a summary of what processes and requirements the ACC uses to measure the effectiveness of every alternative medicine that is funded.
Yours faithfully,
James Sullivan
