Sec. 404.1519h  Your treating physician or psychologist.

    When in our judgment your treating physician or psychologist is 
qualified, equipped, and willing to perform the additional examination 
or tests for the fee schedule payment, and generally furnishes complete 
and timely reports, your treating physician or psychologist will be the 
preferred source to do the purchased examination. Even if only a 
supplemental test is required, your treating physician or psychologist 
is ordinarily the preferred source.
