ACC Chiropractor Auckland: Supporting Your Recovery with Ease
If you’ve experienced an accident or injury in New Zealand and are dealing with back pain or other injuries, you might be wondering “Does ACC cover chiropractic adjustments?” The answer is a resounding YES.
At Platinum Chiropractic, we’re proud to be registered ACC chiropractors in Auckland, offering expert care to help you recover faster and feel better.
What Is ACC and How Does It Work for Chiropractic Care?
The Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) provides financial support for treatment following accidental injuries. This includes subsidised ACC chiropractic care with Platinum Chiropractors for injuries such as back pain, neck pain, sprains, and strains. Whether your accident or injury occurred at work, during sports, or at home, you may be eligible for ACC compensation.
ACC Claims Completed In House - No Referral Necessary!
At Platinum Chiropractic, we make the process simple. You don’t need a GP referral—our team can lodge your ACC chiropractic claim directly during your first visit.
Benefits of Choosing an ACC Chiropractor
When booking your Chiropractor in Howick, Botany or Flat Bush for your Initial Structural Examination, let our Chiropractic Assistants know what’s happened and they’ll further guide you through the finer details of the process. And don’t worry, it’s a simple process, as ACC chiropractors in Auckland we have everything you need to complete your claim and there are other benefits too:
Reduced Costs: As registered ACC chiropractors, your treatment is part-subsidised, making chiropractic adjustments and care more accessible.
No Referral Needed: Save time by coming directly to us.
Comprehensive Care: Our chiropractors focus on structural correction and holistic health to address both symptoms and underlying causes.
The ACC Process: Easy Steps to Get Started
We understand that dealing with an injury can be stressful. That’s why we’ve streamlined the process to make it as straightforward as possible:
1. Visit your ACC health provider
Contact Platinum Chiropractic in Howick/Botany to lodge a new ACC chiropractic claim and we’ll make sure we fill out all the right forms and make the claim on your behalf. No referral needed.
2. Lodge Your Claim
During your visit, we’ll complete all necessary paperwork and submit your ACC claim on your behalf.
3. Pay for part of your appointment
Injuries covered under the Chiropractic Scope of Practice will be subsidised by ACC. They’ll contribute to part of the cost of treatment, with the remaining co-payment is to be covered privately.
4. ACC will confirm if you’re covered
We’ll provide ACC with your mobile number so you can receive a text advising you what is happening with your claim. Both you and your East Auckland ACC Chiropractor will receive a letter confirming the injury covered. This can occur anywhere between a few days to up to a week.
5. Start Treatment
Begin your personalised chiropractic care plan designed to relieve pain and support recovery.
From here, we get you improving with chiropractic care for better health!
