in PIP, DLA, ADP and AA

I have recently noticed that my surgery has given me a John Hopkins ACG score. Is this a new thing, or just to my surgery?
Also I'm wondering if DWP will use this score when making decisions for PIP, UC Health Element etc.

    Hi @onlymeagain

    I haven't heard of this before I read this post, so thank you for sharing that information.

    It will be interesting to see if anybody else has experience with their surgery giving them a score!

    I hadn't heard of it either. But it does worry me if it is used in making decisions regarding benefits.
