Your AI Tutor, on Every Lesson

Unlike other online courses where you're left reading slides alone, every lesson comes with an AI tutor built in. It explains concepts in plain language, answers your follow-up questions, quizzes you to check understanding, and walks you through real scenarios.

You
What’s the main difference between billing a patient for a normal GP visit versus an ACC claim?
AI Tutor
That's a great question. For a normal GP visit, the patient usually pays a fee directly to the clinic. For an injury covered by ACC, the clinic bills ACC for a large part of the cost, so the patient pays a smaller fee, or sometimes no fee at all. Your job is to know which is which, and process the ACC claim paperwork correctly. We can go through the steps for processing an ACC claim now if you like.
