I've done my best with Google but I can't find any!
I need to know what percentage of WCA assessments ATOS did as home visits. If anyone can give me a link or even a source and number, I'll love you forever.
Maximus apparently do 1%.

Hi,ATOS haven't done work capability assessments for quite a few years. The WCA is now done by the health assessment advisory service (formally Maximus) https://www.chdauk.co.uk/employment-and-support-allowance-esa
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
I know it’s Maximus now, I wanted comparative statistics for when ATOS were doing WCAs if such a thing exists.

Unfortunately not. It would still be helpful if anyone can supply any data.

Your post is still in our unanswered posts so fingers crossed that some can help! I am tagging @Joanne_Scope to see if she knows anything.

These are the only stats that Joanne could find on the WCA and they do not include details about the number of home visits. I think that it would be possible to make a freedom of information request to try and get the stats but we can't find anything else.
Hope this helps a bit!Scope
