. The board may require any member receiving a disability
allowance under this part to undergo medical examination at such
times as the board deems necessary. The system may request the member'
s treating physician, upon authorization by the disabled member, to
complete a medical reevaluation questionnaire. The system shall
reimburse the disabled member for all reasonable costs related to
completion of this questionnaire in an amount not to exceed two
hundred fifty dollars ($250) if the disabled member has no other
health coverage that would pay the costs of completing the medical
questionnaire. The board may authorize a medical examination to be
conducted by the disabled member's treating source at the disabled
member's expense and, in any case, may require a medical examination
to be conducted by a physician selected by the board, in which event,
the board shall pay all reasonable costs associated with the
examination. The board shall, in scheduling medical examinations,
give consideration to the interests and convenience of the disabled
member. If the examination, together with other available
information, shows to the satisfaction of the board that the member
is no longer disabled, the disability allowance shall be terminated.
Should the disabled member refuse to submit to medical examination,
as provided in this section, the disability allowance shall be
terminated and all rights of the disabled member to the disability
allowance shall be revoked.
