PER CURIAM:
Janice Camp appeals from the district court’s* order affirming
the Commissioner’s final decision to deny Camp’s application for
Social Security disability benefits. Our review of the record dis-
closes that the Commissioner’s decision is based upon substantial
evidence and is without reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm
substantially on the reasoning of the district court. Camp v.
Massanari, No. CA-00-186-1-C (W.D.N.C. May 15, 2001). Addition-
ally, although Camp argues that the Administrative Law Judge
(“ALJ”) rejected Dr. Richard Munschy’s opinion without properly
seeking additional information from the doctor, she has made no
showing of prejudice. Thus, any error on the part of the ALJ was
harmless. See Newton v. Apfel,
209 F.3d 448, 458 (5th Cir. 2000)
(holding claim requires showing that additional evidence would have
been produced that might have led to a different decision). We
dispense with oral argument, because the facts and legal conten-
tions are adequately presented in the materials before the court
and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
*
The case was decided by a magistrate judge upon the consent
of both parties.
