Whether the appeal against the opposition decision remained justiciable after the rectifying decision of 9 November 2012
The appeal became moot because the rectifying decision replaced and annulled the challenged opposition decision; the insured may challenge the new decision separately.
Under Art. 53(3) LPGA, the insurer may reconsider a decision until its reply is sent. Here, the rectifying decision with new appeal instructions substituted the prior opposition decision and therefore eliminated the object of the pending appeal.
