Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the insurer had to enter into the new disability insurance application under Art. 87 IVV.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. The documented deterioration of health and work capacity gave sufficient indications of a relevant change, so the application had to be examined on the merits.
Extrahierte Begründung
For a new application, only a plausible showing of a material change since the last final decision is required. The record showed newly diagnosed fibromyalgia, cognitive deficits, depressive development, and reduced work performance with wage and workload reductions. The cantonal court demanded too much by effectively requiring proof of incapacity and by assessing the merits prematurely.
