Re: Worrying news for ESA claimants converting from DLA to PIP.

Because NHS consultants give honest reports that don't make it easy for the DWP to maintain it's quotas also there is little pressure the DWP can bring to bear on a well regarded consultant without serious pushback from the other consultants. Despite all the official denials on a quota system operating within the DWP countless former employees and hacked emails have bought the truth to light. I'm like 99% of people in that i want fraudsters found and severely punished ideally with custodial sentences but that's not what is happening under the current system perversely the fraudsters actually prosper within this system. They get to know it inside and out not having the distractions genuine claimants have like pain, mobility issues, psychological problems and just the physical limitations that come from a genuine condition.

I don't have all the answers but the fact we have a state health system that treats people with medical conditions but has no official role in the assessment process for health related benefits speaks volumes about the governments real agenda in all this. I'm fortunate that i deal with four consultants all of whom have volunteered to help in anyway they can with the DWP should i need it but not everyone is so fortunate and they shouldn't have to be fortunate as their consultants should be involved in any assessment process.
