GPs to be paid £33 when they complete the new Personal Independence Payment (PIP) report form

The report form will be used by GPs where someone has claimed PIP and the Department for Work and Pensions requests further information about the claimant in addition to the Health Care Professional’s report.

The report asks about the claimant’s:

  • Disabling conditions
  • Medical history
  • Symptoms and variability of condition
  • Relevant clinical findings
  • Treatment and prognosis
  • Effects of the disabling condition on day to day life
