Compas Med., P.C. v Praetorian Ins. Co., 2015 NY Slip Op 51667(U)(App. Term 2d Dept. 2015)
“However, with respect to the third cause of action, the record establishes that the claim at issue was not denied within 30 days of its receipt (see 11 NYCRR 65-3.8 [a] [1]) and defendant did not demonstrate that the 30-day claim determination period (see 11 NYCRR 65-3.8) had been tolled. As a result, since defendant is precluded from asserting, with respect to this claim, its defense that plaintiff’s assignor had failed to appear for the duly scheduled IMEs and EUOs (see Westchester Med. Ctr. v Lincoln Gen. Ins. Co., 60 AD3d 1045 [2009]), plaintiff is entitled to summary judgment upon its third cause of action.”
