Questão jurídica principal
Whether the insured had a right to disability insurance benefits, including a vocational retraining measure, based on her degree of disability.
Decisão extraída
The conditions for granting disability insurance benefits were not met because the overall disability rate did not reach the threshold required for benefits.
Fundamentação extraída
The court accepted the lower court's reliance on medical reports, a multidisciplinary expert opinion, vocational rehabilitation evidence, and a household inquiry. It saw no reason to depart from the concordant opinions that she remained capable of working in her former occupation and that the combined disability rate was only 21.96%.
