ESa re-application

A client has re-applied for ESA but been told he is not entitled to payments until the medical assessment. Is this because it is less than 6 months since his last application? If so, can he dispute the decision because his health conditions have got worse?

Hi carmind,

If your client's health condition has got significantly worse then they should be treated as having limited capability for work until a decsion is made.

So yes, provide medical evidence and kick up a fuss.
