Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the administrative medical expertise could be relied upon despite objections to its fairness and independence.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The expertise remained usable as evidence in principle; in the individual case, however, it could not displace contemporaneous medical records for the earlier period.
Extrahierte Begründung
The Court referred to its case law on MEDAS reports and held that the report was generally probative, but its retrospective statements were too open-ended to conclusively refute the real-time documents showing full incapacity.
