WORKERS COMPENSATION REGULATION 2003 - REG 21

21 Applications under sec 63A (4)-services provided by more than one provider etc

(1) An accredited provider may, for the purpose of determining whether an application under section 63A (4) of the Act is necessary, request the relevant insurer (in writing) to supply details of any costs that have been claimed from the insurer in respect of occupational rehabilitation services previously provided by another provider in respect of the same injury.

(2) If the insurer does not, within 14 days or such longer period as the Authority may determine, supply the accredited provider with those details, the provider need only make an application under section 63A (4) of the Act if the total cost of services provided by that provider to or for the benefit of the worker concerned will, or is likely to, exceed the maximum amount prescribed by section 63A (3) of the Act.
