ORDER TO REMAND
TERRENCE G. BERG, United States District Judge.
The Commissioner's motion to remand is granted and this matter is remanded for further administrative proceedings. See Shalala v. Schaefer, 509 U.S. 292, 296-97 (1993); Melkonyan v. Sullivan, 501 U.S. 89, 97-98 (1991). The Appeals Council will remand the case to a different Administrative Law Judge to obtain medical expert evidence, reconsider the claimant's residual functional capacity, obtain additional vocational evidence if warranted, offer the claimant the opportunity for a new hearing, and issue a new decision.
