After a psychotic breakdown 20 years ago followed by 3 emergency referrals, admissions and sectioned/encascerated in Mental Health Units and an attempted suicide the Atos Healthcare diagnosed "mild depression" and declared "Fit for Work" at my WCA in Jan 2010.
After 12 months, a fourth emergency referral, admission and section/encasceration in a Mental Health Unit my Atos Healthcare complaint has reached Tier 3 Independent Medical Panel
Their "report" is unsigned, undated and full of basic discrepancies - even my medication has been wrongly recorded!!
Where do I go next - Independent Case Examiner/Ombudsman??

forgetting the stuff that happened 20 years ago was the recent section done under section 2 or 3 ... and you was not there at your own request ?

have you still if under 2 or 3 still got your copy of the section paper work ? as that could be used as evidance and if they under the 1983 mental health act made you have treatment that too would help your case

section 4 sectioned would IMO not carry as much weight but still could be used as evidance

I know this has been going on for some time, so this may be old news, but there is an Atos Complaints Procedures Guide in the Other section of the Members area.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
