Man with multiple sclerosis lost his PIP award after assessment report was dishonestly edited during ‘audit’
Very concerning report in the Daily Record, which I came across via a blog post A man with multiple sclerosis lost his PIP award after assessment report was dishonestly edited during ‘audit’ which states that “A Scot with multiple sclerosis and mental health problems had disability support stopped after benefit chiefs “tampered’ with a nurse’s report.
The 50-year-old only discovered the “audited” new version of his health assessment when he asked for copies to make an appeal.
He said no one spoke to him or the nurse before the report was altered and benefits were stopped.
...in every section of the report where the man scored points towards getting PIP, the “audit” reduced his score to zero.”
Anger as MS sufferer’s benefit stopped after nurse’s report ‘tampered’ with”
How on earth could the auditor have known whether his top was inside out when ‘checking’ the quality?
