    Hi @jprice

    We discussed complaining about the assessment in your previous thread Hhttps://forum.scope.org.uk/discussion/comment/539553#. If the assessment provider is unable to deal with your complaint satisfactorily you can then complain to the Independent Case Examiner and further details are given in the link I gave in thread 539553..

    You might find it useful to refer to the Pip Assessment guide. Part 1 deals with the assessment process and part 2 deals with the interpretation of the PIP descriptors. Part 3 deals with the competencies of the assessor. Is this the information you were looking for?

    PIP assessment guide part 3: health professional performance - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

    Going through the complaints process is arduous and stressful and you could be waiting a least a year for the ICE to give a decision.  You can of course make a complaint as well challenge the PIP decision but it is really important to focus on the PIP decision and, if you disagree with the DWP’s decision, make a strong challenge.  

    I have merged both of the discussion threads as they are linked.

    Do keep in touch and let us know how you get on.


    Thanks Sue. I’ve viewed  these and acted on the points. I’ve already been contacted by the assessment centre as an invatigation is being conducted. Dwp also have the complaint.
