In this appeal, the Appellate Division considers the validity of the National Arbitration Forum’s (NAF) Rule 4 (now known as Rule 9). The rule requires a person injured in an automobile accident to demonstrate “immediate and irreparable loss or damage” when seeking emergent medical services disputed by a personal injury protection (PIP) insurer.
