In an accident insurance dispute concerning a shoulder lesion and cervical syndrome, the Federal Insurance Tribunal found that the medical record contained conflicting expert opinions. It therefore remanded the matter to the cantonal court for a new assessment of the appellant's earning capacity on the basis of the existing file.
LAA art. 18; where the file contains diverging medical opinions on the insured person's work and earning capacity, a final judicial assessment is not possible without further evaluation. The court must ensure a sufficiently reliable medical basis before fixing the loss of earning capacity; if the evidence is inconsistent, the case is to be remitted for additional assessment (consid. not stated).

Whether the insured's earning capacity had to be determined on the basis of the medical evidence in the file.
The case had to be sent back for a new assessment of earning capacity because the medical opinions in the record were divergent.
The existing medical reports were not sufficiently concordant to permit a final determination; a fresh evaluation was therefore required.
