Key legal question
Whether the accident insurer was bound by the disability assessment made by the disability insurance.
Extracted holding
No. Disability must be assessed independently by each social-insurance branch; an IV assessment is only an indication and does not bind SUVA.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that BGE 126 V 288 requires independent assessment with possible divergences if justified. Later case law had even denied binding effect after the ATSG entered into force. SUVA could therefore carry out additional medical and vocational investigations.
