A PIP assessment usually involves discussing how your physical or mental health condition affects everyday activities and getting around, rather than focusing only on your diagnosis. It may be held in person, by telephone or by video, and you should explain what happens on most days, including difficulties, risks, pain, fatigue and whether you need help. Take relevant evidence and details of medication, treatment and support, and ask in advance for reasonable adjustments if needed. The assessment report is considered with your claim and evidence before the DWP makes a decision; check the latest guidance on GOV.UK.
