PIP Mobility Awards Appear Manipulated.
Thousands of claimants claiming PIP for mental health conditions are missing out on PIP payments because their reports appear to be manipulated.
Research conducted by Benefits And Work has shown that although the award rates rose for a year they’ve now dropped down to their previous levels which have started to rise again.
This is appalling because award rates should not have been shown to fall, they should have continued to rise and staying at a higher level.
Benefits And Work have also looked at the award rates for all conditions that the DWP consider would be affected by mental health and surprise, surprise they’re the same.
According to the DWP’s own estimates regarding mental health conditions approximately 6% of the entire PIP caseload should have moved from no award of the mobility component to enhanced.
Indeed a further 6% should have been moved from no award to a standard award.
