Questão jurídica principal
Whether the denial of an invalidity pension and vocational measures could stand on the existing medical file.
Decisão extraída
No. The medical assessment was insufficient and conflicting; further multidisciplinary expert evidence was required before deciding the claim.
Fundamentação extraída
Treating and specialist reports left unclear the residual work capacity after multiple joint replacements, spine pathology, and hand disorders. The RAD opinion relied on an incorrect description of the prior job and did not address the full limitations.
