AND NOW, this 31st day of December, 2014, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issues, as stated by petitioner are:
(1) Whether the Superior Court improperly interpreted § 1797 of the MVFRL, the Supreme Court case of Herd Chiropractic v. State Farm, and its own case of Levine v. Travelers, to allow attorneys’ fees even when an insurer has utilized the peer review process?
(2) Whether the Superior Court improperly interpreted and misapplied § 1797(b)(4) by holding that the insurer must oversee the statutory compliance of peer review organizations with 31 Pa.Code § 69.53(e)?
