Dockery v. Saul · filed 2021-02-16(a)(1)

The ALJ is responsible for determining a claimant’s RFC, id. § 404.1546(c), based on “all of the relevant evidence in the [claimant’s] case record.” Id. § 404.1545(a)(1). ... Because the Court cannot determine whether the ALJ properly evaluated the opinions of record, the Court cannot say that the Plaintiff's RFC was properly addressed or that the ALJ's ultimate decision was supported by substantial evidence.

Morgan v. Commissioner of Social Security · filed 2021-02-12(a)

Next an ALJ may not reject an examining doctor's opinion simply because the doctor examined the claimant once. To properly determine plaintiff's RFC, the ALJ was required to consider all relevant medical opinions. See 20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1545(a), 416.945(a). An examining doctor's opinion expressing functional limitation is relevant and thus must be considered.

An ALJ assesses residual functional capacity using relevant medical and non-medical evidence, including medical source statements about what the claimant can still do.

Jacobs v. Commissioner of Social Security · filed 2021-02-25(a)(3)

In general, the ALJ is responsible for assessing Plaintiff’s RFC based on a review of relevant medical and non-medical evidence, including any statement about what Plaintiff can still do, provided by any medical sources. 20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1527(d), 404.1545(a)(3), 404.1546(c). ...

An RFC assessment must consider all relevant evidence, including treatment records, daily activities, medical opinions, and the claimant’s testimony.

Welch v. Saul · filed 2021-03-02(a)

Christopher v. Commissioner of Social Security · filed 2021-03-09(a)(3)

An Administrative Law Judge makes this finding based on a consideration of medical opinions and all other evidence in the case record. ...
