MEDICAL EXAMINATIONS OF PERSONS RETIRED FOR DISABILITY (§ 51.1-159)

A. Once each year following retirement, the Board may require a former member
who retired for disability and who has not attained his normal retirement age to
undergo a medical examination by the Medical Board or a physician or other
health care professional designated by the Medical Board. If the former member
refuses to submit to the required medical examination, his retirement allowance
shall be discontinued until he complies. If he does not comply within six months
of the date of the request, all of his rights to any further disability
retirement allowance shall cease, subject to the provisions of &#xA7; 51.1-160.

B. If the Medical Board determines that a beneficiary is not disabled after
reviewing the findings of any of the medical examinations provided for in this
section, all rights to any further disability allowance shall cease, subject to
the provisions of &#xA7; 51.1-160.
