SPP v Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Corporation
- Citation
- [1997] NZACC 109
- Court
- District Court
Regulation 5(a) plainly requires the Corporation to be satisfied before the procedure is performed and does not permit retrospective approval; because the appellant did not obtain prior approval and the Corporation had rejected the claim at the time of procedures, the appeal fails and payment cannot be ordered.
