Wilson Parking New Zealand, which operates 500 parking ticket machinesthroughout the country, says ANZ first alerted it to fraud relating to its ticket machines at Auckland Hospital and Waikato Hospital at the end of June.
"This breach is suspected to have impacted only one machine within the Wilson Parking portfolio, and for a short period of time," a spokeswoman for Wilson Parking said, referring to the Auckland machine.
Wilson supplies the equipment and some services to the Waikato District Health Board site but does not operate the carpark. The board is the operator and manager.

Wilson said it found no sign of skimming devices when it inspected its machines throughout the country, but Police on Wednesday confirmed to the Herald that claims of card skimming at both machine locations were now the subject of an investigation.
This morning, senior sergeant Nikki Latimer of the Auckland City financial crime unit said the Police were appealing to the public to help identify a man who could assist in the investigation.
