Key legal question
Whether the new application showed a relevant worsening of health requiring further medical investigation and a new pension decision.
Extracted holding
The medical record was not sufficiently clarified to uphold the refusal; additional examinations were required before deciding on entitlement.
Extracted reasoning
The specialized clinic’s later assessment indicated reduced work capacity and new symptoms, while the opposing RAD opinion lacked its own examination and did not convincingly rebut the clinic’s findings. In this evidentiary situation, the administration had a duty to obtain further medical evidence.
