Letting Independent Assessment Services and Capita collect evidence

Hello
Surely this information in the PIP guide is now not true as I can go on the NHS app and see if somebody has requested information?
Keep up the good work.

So, if you let Independent Assessment Services and Capita collect the evidence, you will not know
before you attend your assessment whether your chosen health professionals have been asked for,
and have provided, evidence. You will also not know if they were asked the right questions to get
detailed answers relevant to your claim

Mine has a scan of the factual report my GP filled in for me, but not the one a different healthcare team filled in for me - I think it very much depends on who they request information from, how much information your personal NHS record has on it (it varies wildly!), and how good your healthcare workers are at keeping things scanned and up to date.

I'm worried looking at my no-change MR, as they mention considering evidence from my GP. Maybe they just mean the old record showing the painkillers I was prescribed during covid, which I had to stop taking due to side effects. I included this to show why I am not on them now, as have been disbelieved about pain. But now I wonder if they also contacted them. So now I need to get into the ivory tower that is my GP to check, as nothing shows on the record I can see online. Sigh.
I'm jolly well appealing anyway. It's my body, I don't have to swallow pills just to prove a point to a deliberately obtuse assessor and decision maker if I would rather live with the pain most of the time. [And as advised by one great NHS MSK guy, use voltarol gel, not pills, when I must]. I want to have something in reserve for if I need them when I'm older still. And I told the assessor that, and it's in the PA4.
