• holding that ALJ did not err in relying on VE testimony that the claimant possessed specific transferrable skills, such as verbal and numerical recording and record keeping knowledge
• finding remand necessary due to evidentiary deficit where ALJ rejected opinion of treating physician and did not mention or evaluate the only other medical opinions
• finding remand necessary due to evidentiary deficit where ALJ rejected opinion of treating physician and did not mention or evaluate the only other medical opinions
• ALJ properly relied on VE testimony that claimant possessed transferable skills, including recordkeeping
• “[T]he ALJ could have—and must on remand— fill in the evidentiary deficit either by seeking further information from [the claimant’s treating physician] or obtaining the opinions of an independent examining physician or a medical expert.”
• “Once the ALJ determined that Dr. Robinson’s opinions were insufficient and unsupported by the medical evidence, the ALJ had a duty to conduct an appropriate inquiry to fill that gap. What the ALJ could not do was fill in the gap on her own.”
