The applicant requested a reconsideration of a preliminary decision which found she was statute-barred from disputing entitlement to caregiver and housekeeping benefits due to an expired limitation period.
The applicant argued the adjudicator erred in law by finding the insurer could request a disability certificate and an insurer's examination contemporaneously, and by finding the insurer was not required to send the examination report to her health practitioner.
The adjudicator dismissed the request for reconsideration, finding no error of law or breach of procedural fairness.
The insurer was permitted to request both contemporaneously, and there was no obligation to send the report to a health practitioner because the applicant never submitted a disability certificate.
