Stock photo.More than 100 medical experts have joined a campaign against the Road Accident Fund , saying they are owed about R150m.

Mariëtte Minnie, director of MMB Made Easy, is leading the charge. At this stage, she says, the group she represents is not planning on going to court, but want to campaign for fair payment for reports that have been, or are going to be, used in court. Minnie said the complainants are medico-legal experts who have examined and reported on claimants with cases lodged against the fund. Each case involved a doctor or psychologist examining the claimant, some of whom had brain injuries.

The problem started three years ago with confusion over the RAF’s board of lawyers having insufficient medico-legal experts on record, and a directive was issued allowing them to contract experts not on the authorised RAF list.
