Pip assessment via capita

8 replies

Hi was looking for some help/ advice

i had a pop capita assessment today lasting only 18 minutes, this is a review not a new claim, i cannot remember when my 1st claim runs out so assuming its close.

i suffer depression / anxiety / ptsd and that side of mental health has not changed just on different medication.

since my form where sent back i was diagnosed with arthritis of the collar bone, had steroid injection ( which has not helped ) i stated on my forms that i was awaiting xrays to fine the cause of my pain.

today on the call she asked about my mental health , cooking, washing, going out the house, which none has changed since 1st claim then asked about my shoulder, explained the diagnosis as i have a print out off my doctor, also explained i am on medication for the pain and i am awaiting physio.

also notified her i am starting counselling again on monday as it was done via womans aid.

im just feeling overwhelmed and physically sick as the phone call didnt take as long as i expected and i feel like this is going to be a very bad outcome.

has anyone had similar and had a good outcome?

thankyou

I would try not to worry as this is a review it may be that from the review form that you completed and the medical evidence that you submitted it was clear that your award should continue. Th assessor may have only needed to speak you briefly as they already had the information that they needed.

Have you heard anything yet x

You can call them and ask for a copy of the report. Don't be worried about the time scale, it's absolutely normal for it to be sent quickly to the decision maker.
