CASE SUMMARY:  
In this unanimous per curiam Opinion, the Court of Appeals, pursuant to the Supreme Court's opinion in Nasser v Auto Club (Item No. 1204), held that the reasonableness and necessity of medical expenses are necessary elements of a lawsuit seeking recovery of benefits and thus renders their absence a defense to the insurer's liability.
