Assessors : how and what do they really base their decisions on?
Is there a undisclosed to members of the public "file" for assessors Capita atos maximus ? as to how they use or decide interpretation of descriptors which can come out quite differently at times to the actual descriptor and as to what the applicant said.etc
I have been told this is so by someone I have no more info. than that from I believe a good source that Assessors I add some: :of whom come out with contradictory decisions reports when assessing persons for PIP..
I know there is a govt guide for assessors.
Though I have noticed that a number in fact all as far as I can tell FOIs I am not sure if it includes PIPAT(other than a very old one I think) have been refused by Govt. A number of FOIs have been made.
If you have such information please can you reference or provide it that which the assessors have thank you

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

Hi apples6
We have a copy of the PIPAT Guidance for Assessment Providers which is a 103 page guide for Atos and Capita using PIPAT assessment software. The guide is version 3 dated October 2014. It can be found in the members only guides.
I have found Personal Independence Payment (PIP) assessment guide for assessment providers last updated 30 September 2019.
