Question juridique clé
Whether the Bellikon clinic medical assessment had to be treated as an independent expert report under Art. 44 ATSG.
Solution extraite
No. The clinic physicians' statements ordered by SUVA were not independent expert reports within Art. 44 ATSG.
Motifs extraits
The court held that SUVA rehabilitation clinics are not independent from SUVA; their assessments are internal medical clarifications linked to treatment and rehabilitation, not external expert evidence. Legislative history did not show that Art. 44 ATSG was meant to cover such internal physicians.
