Ok its a rumor and no more, but I was told and not in a bar 
that when they start the review as it would cost too much ... to give everyone a medical they will score people using the last dla form filled in and paperwork supplied
so for example if you filled in the form yourself and your carer filled in the other part about you that would score less than say someone with a GP filled in box but not as many as a specilist with test results
also longer time having had dla would be looked at to see if the reason for the claim is one that should not have been given life time or long time award
the example I was given was migrain and piles
all the above would do is filter some out who would not get seen or dla changed and of course as many DM will be carrying it out one person might get called, but another not as ill might not
the problem i see with this is I thought I had read on here that they dont keep the dla forms for more than a couple of years after the award ??????
