Posted by Jane Hughes on 01 February 2022 02:28 PM |
Many of you have been receiving emails from ACC about changes to the Elective Surgery Services contract which take effect from 1 February 2022. As a reminder, the changes are as follows:
The removal of prior approval means you no longer need to complete or submit an Assessment Report and Treatment Plan (ARTP) for surgeries booked from 1 February. However you still need to send ACC a copy of the patient's clinical notes. Invoicing without purchase orders If you do not have a purchase order number (because prior approval is not required), put n/a into the relevant field (Purchase Number) against the claim number. For a full list of the changes, refer to the following available on the ACC web site. https://www.acc.co.nz/assets/contracts/elective-surgery-og.pdf
