Confused by PIP application procedure

I am in the process of a second claim for conversion from DLA to PIP. The first claim was thrown out and advice was given to me by a well known MH charity that there was no point in taking it to tribunal.
The ATOS assessment is booked for next Monday, however, I have discovered today that no reports have been requested from any of my doctors and psych team. Is this usual? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The first time around I was turned down at MR at which point I took advice. I was very unwell when I completed the first application and missed a lot of information.
This time around I feel more confident about the application and the supporting paperwork that was sent with the application paperwork. However, last time, my Drs were contacted before I had the assessment, so I don't understand why this hasn't happened this time.
Thank you for taking a look at my message and for your response
