Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the non-disclosure of the internal medical file review violated the right to be heard and required remittal.
Decisione estratta
The internal medical review should have been disclosed, but any hearing defect was cured on appeal; remittal solely for that reason was unnecessary.
Motivazione estratta
The review formed an important basis of the insurance decision, yet the Federal Court held that a remand would only create a pointless formalism because it had full cognizance and could itself review the merits.
