Key legal question
Whether the IV office must reimburse the cost of the private psychiatric report.
Extracted holding
Yes. The private report contained new medically relevant findings and, in any event, the file already required further clarification; the report was therefore necessary for assessing the claim.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that the office should have ordered further investigations once the treating psychiatrist reported a prolonged decompensation. The private expert opinion also provided new insights and triggered additional clarification, leading to the later administrative reassessment.
