FME form

Hi,

I'm going through an ATOS assessment report. If there is 'FME' against an item does that mean that they have the evidence or that it should be sought and if so by whom ATOS or DWP?

Hi,

I have now read the ATOS medical report. There are many instances of 'inaccurate recording' to put it politely. One example is 'no breathlessness reported or observed before, during or after the assessment'. My daughter had reported my breathlessness on arrival and I had a panic attack halfway through the assessment as I could not breathe, the assessor asked if I wanted to halt the assessment and continue at a further date.

Is it worth the hassle of making a complaint?

I've got the paperwork ready for tribunal so only have to copy and paste
Thank you for all your advice.

The following is a summary of the 3 page letter in response to my Atos complaint that basically just told me to appeal the DWP decision.

‘Atos Healthcare’s Client Relations Team have reviewed the points you have raised and are unable to reconcile what was said or not said at an assessment as we were not present.’
‘Within your correspondence you highlighted that you feel the HP has omitted or misrepresented the facts.’
‘However, if you are unable to provide supporting medical evidence to support your claims we will not be able to pursue the matter any further.’
‘Consequently, the presumption cannot be made that, when a Tribunal overturns a decision, it was due to a lack in the validity or accuracy of the examination report used in the decision making process.’

If Atos don't take responsibility for the HP who does?
