Whether the insured had an invalidating health impairment requiring further medical investigations and disability insurance benefits
Solution extraite
The file showed no objectively verifiable organic or psychiatric impairment causing the alleged symptoms; the IV office was entitled to deny further medical investigations and reject the claim.
Motifs extraits
The medical evidence consistently showed a marked discrepancy between objective findings and alleged complaints, with signs of exaggeration and self-limitation. A possible somatoform pain disorder could not be treated as disabling in the absence of a psychiatric substrate.
