Yes, if your physician says it's OK.

You're not working, not earning income, while taking the exam, so why not?

May be more than just OK, you may be required to have periodic exams to determine if you are still eligible for benefits.

Ok, I'm confused. By "professional exam", does OP mean a test to qualify for a professional license of some sort (what I thought), or being examined by a physician to determine the state of OP's health, etc.

I am thinking the insurance company want him to be examined by their doctor or at least a doctor. OP come back and clear this up for us.
