That means that Dr. Grimes had almost no information when making a very important decision. It seems that, at least in the interest of protecting herself, she would've waited to gather at least some information before recommending denial. Otherwise she'd just be asking for a day in court, which is exactly what the claim administrator got. Read the full opinion and press release for Allen v. AT&T Disability Income Program here.
