How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that “the ALJ . . . was in no way bound to develop the medical record” for the year after the claimant’s filing
• holding that “[e]ven if the evidence preponderates against the Commissioner’s findings, the court must affirm if the decision reached is supported by substantial evidence”
• holding that the claimant bears the burden of proving her disability and is therefore responsible for producing evidence to support of her claim
• holding that ALJ’s failure to consider claimant’s ability to pay was not reversible error because the ALJ’s decision primarily was based on factors other than the claimant’s failure to obtain medical treatment
• holding that the ALJ’s failure to consider a claimant’s inability to afford medical treatment was not reversible error because the ALJ’s disability determination was “not significantly based on a finding of noncompliance”
• holding that ALJ’s failure to consider claimant's ability to pay was not reversible error because the ALJ’s decision primarily was based on factors other than the claimant's failure to obtain medical treatment
