Does anyone know if Maximus or DWP use the PIP medical report to reassess your ESA?

    @Keira Lots of debate around this? I do believe they look at both as per this statement from 2014 below. I've always offered my infomation and added an index it in both ways, but make sure it's relevant to both as ESA and PIP technically are different benefits. ESA relates to Mobilising and PIP is walking.

    Be very, very mindful how you mix the two. I've done it with DLA and ESA and ESA and PIP with results.
