Greetings,
ACC's Stock Exit process / routine, intent, has been in place a lot longer than most will be aware. It began in the mid / late 70's, when ACC was only a few years old. There are some of us here, whose ongoing battle with ACC is 25 / 27 years old. By way of "Boogied up" medical reports. And blatant out right denial of claimants rights.
In those early days hardly anyone knew much of how the system worked, including lawyers, advocates etc. Information to claimants was Scant , not much changed in that today. Assessors were "instructed", as they are today, as to what ACC wanted.
More blatantly so of recent times.
I, for one, am very clear on that point, in my case.
I was accused of "Trying it on", by ACC's Pet Specisalist", and 25 years later, I have been proven to to be right and correct, in my claim, BY THE COURTS.
And ACC is still Ripping me Off.!!!!
HOW MANY MORE ARE THERE OUT THERE. Who dont know that they have been shafted, who do not have access to the internet or are unaware of support groups. ?
But that is changing now.
It is unfortunate for most of us today, that a certain type of individual saw ACC as a
means of getting some $'s for free out of the system, in those early days. And ACC, has since used this excuse to dump many genuine injured claimants. And developed
some very unfair and illegal tactics and processes.
And in turn they(ACC) have become the worst kind of LOW life Rip OFF merchants, this country has ever seen.
It is almost impossible for anyone to get away with trying it on today as ACC has way to much in place to counter this.
Statistcs will show that ACC, and Indivivuals within ACC, fraudulantly, Thieve , Deny illegally, something like $1000, for 1$ of some claimants entiltlement
As well as the wastage on their Spin Garbage, unwarranted amounts on reviews, court appeals, due to their intentionally incorrect decisions.
This is not what we, the levy payers and policy holders pay for !
.
K.P.I's,ARE ONLY AN INCENTIVE TO PROMOTE THIS TYPE OF CRIMINAL BEHAVIOUR
This has promoted the Adversarial Attitude and culture within ACC.
ACC is N Z's compulsary no fault insurance scheme against injury and subsequant loss of earnings. WE dont have a choice in this.
It has become another money grabbing arm of the Govt. and is being supported in this and its dirty dealings with its Policy holders. And LEVY PAYERS.
But the tide is slowly turning. You can only push S... up hill so far before it liquifies and gravity takes over.
This a fact of life MR WILSON. (and co.)
