Gold made this Official Information request to Accident Compensation Corporation

The request was successful.

Dear Accident Compensation Corporation,

Updating a request made last year with current numbers;

Please can you tell me, for each of the last 10 years, how much the ACC has paid out for each of the following services:

Acupuncture
Chiropactic
Osteopathy
Naturopathy

If an extra column could be added for the total amount paid out in each year to facilitate working out percentages also.

Yours faithfully,
Gold

Dear Koleti Vae'au,

Thank you for the supplied data. One of the key points that I was after was misinterpreted though.

The "total" column appears to be the total of the 3 categories listed. What I was requesting was the total of all payments so as to work out the percentages of these versus everything.

Yours sincerely,

Gold
