Certification of Disability. An employee claiming benefits under this plan shall submit to the College a written certification by a physician attesting to his or her inability to work, including a projected date to return to work, and shall submit subsequent certification by a physician of his or her continued inability to work if requested by the College. The College shall have the right as a condition to payment of benefits, to require the employee to provide relevant medical records and to submit to an examination by a physician designated and paid for by the College. If the physician selected and paid for by the College declines to certify to the employee's inability to work, the Association shall have the right within twenty days from the notification of declined benefit eligibility to elect, by written notice to the College, to submit the eligibility determination to a third physician. If the Association requests submission to a third physician, the College physician and the employee's treating physician shall select a qualified physician to determine the matter. If the College and the employee's physician are unable to agree upon the selection of a third physician, such third physician shall be designated by the President of the Xxxxxx County Medical Society. The determination of the physician so selected, as to whether the employee is unable to work because of a disability covered under this plan, shall be binding upon the College, the Association and the employee. The cost of the services of the third physician shall be equally paid by the College and Association, and shall not be subject to further grievance.
