  1. Andreatta v. Astrue

    Civil No. 11-3158-CV-S-NKL-SSA (W.D. Mo. May. 21, 2012)   Cited 8 times
    Remanding case in which ALJ may have relied on PRFCA completed by a single decision-maker and referencing an agency policy that ALJs are not to evaluate in their opinions assessments by single decision-makers

    Andreatta relies on an unreported district-court case that found a doctor's report to be of "little or no value" where the doctor had only reviewed a one-page letter about the claimant's medical history before rendering his opinion. Mateer v. Brown, 702 F. Supp. 220 (S.D. Iowa 1988). Andreatta's only evidence that Dr. Zeimet possessed an incomplete record is the following statement that Dr. Zeimet made in a report: "I do have a few records for review today."
