What the petition asks

Thousands of disabled/chronically ill people in the UK are reporting unfair assesments being undertaken by health care professionals who work for atos, capita and maximus.Many health care professionals are writing false reports to the DWP. THEY MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS.
Dwp state they are confident that they have the right assessment provider's in place to deliver our health and disability assesments in the UK. Yet there are thousands of heartbreaking stories from people with disabilities and chronic health conditions claiming they have been unfairly treated and that assessor's have lied on their reports. Why is this allowed to happen. We demand that the assessment process be fairer and that hcp's who falsify a document should be held accountable.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about PIP assessments, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

If you'd like PIP assessments to be recorded, to ensure accuracy, you might like to sign this petition:

Video record all PIP, ESA and DLA medical assessments with patient consent

Otherwise, you could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
