IIDB Medical Adviser's Handbook?
Wed 20-May-09 10:24 AM

Is there any information out there that gives guidance as to how doctors assess disablement for IIDB (prescribed disease D5)?

I'm thinking something similar to the Disability Handbook or the Incapacity Benefit Handbook for Approved Doctors.

A link or a signpost would be much appreciated.

Back in the day, this would have been a useful pointer :

Not sure if it's been replaced or not though I'm afraid.
