Example Output
Claim Analysis Summary
Medical Evidence Quality: 7/10
- Strong: Consistent orthopedic evaluations spanning 18 months showing degenerative disc disease at L4-L5
- Gap: No functional capacity evaluation from occupational therapist
- Inconsistency: Pain levels reported as 8/10 in physician notes but 5/10 in self-report form dated 3 weeks later
Work History Alignment: 6/10
- Your prior role required standing 8+ hours daily; submitted imaging confirms structural limitation
- Missing: Vocational assessment showing transfer to sedentary work is not feasible
