The DWP can make a Decision on the claim, but only one that is more favourable than the existing one, but more usually it will be the Tribunal panel that will make the Decision.
You will receive a copy of the new medical report and can make comments on it, a new hearing will be convened hopefully quite quickly, and will then hear your case and make a Decision on it.
Good luck
