Appeal from an order of the Civil Court of the City of New York, Kings County (Kathryn E. Freed, J.), entered September 25, 2009. The order, insofar as appealed from as limited by the brief, implicitly denied defendant's cross motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.

ORDERED that the order, insofar as appealed from, is reversed, without costs, and defendant's cross motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint is granted.

In this action by a provider to recover assigned first-party no-fault benefits, defendant appeals from so much of an order as denied its cross motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.

The affidavit of defendant's claims division employee was sufficient to establish that the denial of claim forms had been timely mailed in accordance with defendant's standard office practices and procedures (see St. Vincent's Hosp. of Richmond v Government Empls. Ins. Co., 50 AD3d 1123 [2008]; Delta Diagnostic Radiology, P.C. v Chubb Group of Ins., 17 Misc 3d 16 [App Term, 2d & 11th Jud Dists 2007]). Moreover, for the reasons stated in Great Wall Acupuncture, P.C. v Geico Ins. Co. (26 Misc 3d 23 [App Term, 2d, 11th & 13th Jud Dists 2009]), it was proper for defendant to use the workers' compensation fee schedule for acupuncture services performed by chiropractors to determine the amount which plaintiff was entitled to receive for the acupuncture services rendered by its licensed acupuncturist. Since defendant fully paid plaintiff the amount to which plaintiff was entitled, defendant's cross motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint should have been granted.
