. The board may require a member receiving a disability
retirement 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 retired
member, to complete a medical reevaluation questionnaire. The system
shall reimburse the retired member for all reasonable costs related
to completion of this questionnaire in an amount not to exceed two
hundred fifty dollars ($250) if the retired member has no other
health coverage that would pay for the cost of completing the medical
questionnaire. The board may authorize a medical examination to be
conducted by the retired member's treating source at the retired
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 retired
member. If the examination, together with other available
information, shows to the satisfaction of the board that the retired
member is no longer disabled, the disability retirement allowance
shall be terminated. Should the retired member refuse to submit to
medical examination, as provided in this section, the member's
disability retirement allowance shall be terminated and all rights of
the retired member to the disability retirement allowance shall be
revoked.
