In order to score points here, a claimant needs to have a diagnosis of a mental health problem ( or documented cognitive or sensory problems). This includes depression, anxiety, bipolar etc. More weight is given if there has been referral to a specialist and/or medication prescribed.

I am so confused.
The phrase is clearly at odds with the recommended score. I'm afraid I can't explain it, I suspect they have done a copy/paste across the document and have not checked what it was they copied.
I'm afraid you will have to wait and see how the Decision Maker interprets it.
