You can change or cancel using the link in your confirmation email, or by calling the clinic: Remuera 09 218 8519, Henderson 09 884 0371. Appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours' notice, or missed without notice, may be charged the full appointment fee.
ACC and health insurance.
We help with the paperwork at the clinic. Cover depends on ACC's decision or your policy, so we cannot promise that a particular appointment will be covered.
ACC
We are ACC registered, so no GP referral is needed. If you have injured yourself in an accident, your chiropractor will assess the injury at your first appointment and lodge a claim if it qualifies, or see you under an existing claim if you bring the details. ACC generally covers injuries from accidents within the last 12 months.
Appointments covered by an accepted claim are charged at the ACC rate above. If ACC declines a claim, we will let you know. Read more about ACC.
Southern Cross
We are a Southern Cross Easy-claim provider. With your policy number we can check your level of cover and, where your policy allows, invoice Southern Cross directly.
Other health insurers
Payment is made at the clinic and we give you a formal receipt after your appointment, so you can claim back from your provider.
If cost is a concern
We don't want money to stop you asking for help. Tell us about your circumstances so we can discuss the options available. Contact us.
