Does the DWP/Job Centre actually contact GPs to verify sick notes or not?

How does this work for sick notes? Do they actually follow up on them or largely just accept them as true?

They might sample check them, but you can get one via e-consult these days so hardly worth forging one. I’m not a benefits basher by the way - NHS is solely to blame.

Yes , nothing to worry about , just ,check that gp see someone and yes not fit for work , that's it nothing to worry about
