Following the Weir judgment, you can review not just decisions about cover and entitlements, but all the other stuff that ACC put in your rehab plan, such as the objective of the plan, or a particular assessment, or work trial, or work prep programme they require, if you consider it unreasonable.

The Weir judgment also gives rise to "extenuating circumstances" to justify lodging reviews of rehab plans finalised before Weir outside the three month time limit - the extenuating circumstance being that you understoood the settled state of the law before Weir gave you no right to review, but now the law has been clarified by the High Court, you realise you have that right.

The review application form is nested very deeply in ACC's own website (wonder why?), making it hard to find, so I've posted a copy here.

Download the form, and get those reviews rolling in.

Looks like we've struck gold here - 14 downloads of the review form in the first 19 hours it's been posted. DRSL are going to have a busy time.
