Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 11, § 3042. Administration of disability retirement annuity

A. At least once each year during the first five years following the allowance of a disability retirement annuity to any member, and at least once in every three-year period thereafter, the board shall require any disability annuitant to undergo a medical examination to be made at the place of residence of said beneficiary, or any other place mutually agreed upon by a physician or physicians engaged by the board. If any examination indicates that the beneficiary is no longer physically or mentally incapacitated for service, or that he is engaged or is able to engage in a position similar to that previously held with the City, payments by the system shall be discontinued.

B. Should such annuitant be engaged in any gainful occupation, and his earnings therefrom together with his disability annuity shall exceed the rate of earnable compensation of the member at the date of disability retirement, the disability retirement annuity shall be reduced to an amount which, when added to the compensation being earned by the member, shall not exceed such rate of earnable compensation.

C. Should any disability annuitant refuse to submit to a medical examination as herein provided, payments by the system shall be discontinued until his withdrawal of such refusal, and should his refusal continue for one year, all rights of the member in any disability retirement annuity shall be revoked by the board.

D. Any disability annuitant who is restored to active service shall participate fully under the provisions hereof to the same extent as any active member but such person shall not be entitled to credit as service for the period for which disability benefits shall have been paid.
