The ESA assessment process only reviews eligibility for the Support Group prior to the medical not the WRAG.

You can check what the criteria for the Support Group are on page 25 of the Understanding ESA guide in the Members area.

I am afraid that everybody receiving benefits are liable to re-assessment, it is no different for the ESA Support Group.

Assessments tend to be further apart than those for members of the WRAG, but it really depends on the nature of the illness and whether there is an expectation of improvement in the condition.
