I have received my ESA50 but need to have the medical at home. It states not to pay for any 'new evidence' but if I have to get a letter from my doctor confirming I cannot travel to any medical centre and need to have the medical at home, would it be ok for her to include in the same letter supportive medical evidence too. Also, does anyone know what the outcome was, that anyone with a degenerative disease would not have these assessments anymore. I vaguely remember this being on the news a while ago but heard nothing since.
It is only advisory bot to pay for new evidence, it's you claim and you can do what you want and this includes your GP including additional information in any letter that they might write about your requiring a home assessment.
The Government have still not announced their plans for exempting some members of the SG from further reassessment.
