Description:
What is a Disability Assessor?
- A medical professional who assesses the personal situations of those with a disability to see if they qualify for personal independent payment (PIP).
- Disability Assessors will ensure those requiring help and money from the Government are able to receive it and play a key role in the health system.
What will I be doing?
- With each assessment, a written report will be made that includes the applicant’s history, how their health condition affects everyday life, what medications are being used, what treatments are being received etc.
- Reports need to be clear, well-ordered and detailed as every decision regarding PIP will be justified by the information collected by disability assessors.
