We adopt the ALJ's findings of fact. We grant the insurer's motion. Our review must be based on the record certified to us. Consequently, we treat claimant's submission of evidence as a motion to remand to the ALJ for the taking of additional evidence. We may remand to the ALJ if the record has been improperly, incompletely or otherwise insufficiently developed.
Remand is appropriate upon a showing of good cause or other compelling basis.
To merit remand for consideration of additional evidence, it must be clearly shown that material evidence was not obtainable with due diligence at the time of hearing. In this case, there is no evidence that the document submitted for the first time on review was unavailable with due diligence at the time of hearing. Moreover, in light of the existing documentary and testimonial evidence already present in the record, we find that consideration of this additional evidence would not likely affect the outcome of the case. Under these circumstances, we conclude that the case has not been improperly, incompletely, or otherwise insufficiently developed. Accordingly, it does not merit remand.
