Aoraki Mount Cook national parkNew Zealand is a beautiful country in the south west pacific. A population of 4.5million across two main islands – the north and the south – and Stewert Island tucked down the bottom (population of just 400). New Zealand is known around the world as beautiful, scenic, sheep filled, friendly and safe place to visit and call home.

New Zealand has both a public and private healthcare system, and both offer high standards of care.  In the public system, essential healthcare services are provided free for all New Zealanders and people in New Zealand on a work permit valid for two years or longer.  Alongside the public system, private healthcare offers access to private hospitals for the treatment of both urgent and non-urgent conditions (excluding Accident and Emergency Care).

The ACC – Everyone in New Zealand injured in an accident is covered by ACC’s no-fault scheme. This includes children, beneficiaries, students, those working, the unemployed or retired and visitors to New Zealand. The ACC cover helps to pay for the costs of recovery. This includes payment towards treatment, help at home and work, and help with your income.  Physiotherapy providers register as treatment providers with ACC and then their services can be subsidised by the ACC. Most clinics include a surcharge on top of the ACC payment received.
