The MAC Scheme covers all road users, including drivers, passengers, pedestrians, motorbike riders, and cyclists. Territory residents are also covered when interstate if a Northern Territory registered vehicle is involved in the accident, regardless of who’s at fault in causing the accident.
MAC Scheme claims are administered by TIO on behalf of the Northern Territory Government Motor Accidents Compensation Commission (MACC).
As a personal injury specialist, TIO manages all aspects of personal injury and fatality claims. The TIO MAC claims team have extensive experience in managing personal injury claims and provide guidance and support throughout their claims journey.
TIO MAC and the law firms it engages, must act as model litigants in accordance with the MACC model litigant principles.
For more information about the MAC Scheme, entitlements and benefits, and how to make a claim, visit the MACC website.
