This may give you some idea of what ATOS are told to apply during medical assessments.

Hi Kathy, that is fantastic, many thanks!
I would suggest that anyone who hasn't read this does so!www.disabilityalliance.org/esahandbook.pdf
I haven't read all of it but managed to read most and skimmed the rest. Will have another look later!
Thought this was interesting:
Remember that Decision Makers are not medically qualified
I'm all befuddled through too much reading now!
Thanks again Kathy,
Best wishes,
Rachel

Hi again,
Confused by the fact that they continually refer to medical examinations. I thought at ATOS they did assessments?

ATOS assessments incorporate a clinical examination.
