We are continually monitoring the PIP end-to-end journey and, along with our providers, we are taking forward various initiatives to improve overall PIP processing times, while also maintaining a strong focus on the quality of PIP decisions.<\/p>

We are monitoring and evaluating these actions and will continue to look for opportunities to introduce further initiatives as appropriate.<\/p>

The Department carries out analysis of the likely impacts of its policies on protected groups, including disabled people as required by the Equality Act. Equality impact assessments conducted in respect of PIP are available at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/disability-living-allowance-reform-equality-impact-assessment<\/a>.<\/p>

Although we do not keep details of the numbers of individual claimants who have provided feedback, we regularly receive and consider feedback from a variety of sources including claimants, our staff, providers and from our Implementation Stakeholder Forum which hears views from a wide range of organisations representing and supporting disabled people. I, along with my officials, meet regularly with organisations representing disabled people.<\/p>

We are conducting two independent reviews of PIP, the first of which will report by the end of 2014.

Where it is clear from their questionaire or from medical evidence that an individual who is making a claim for PIP has aphasia, the health professional will advise on the level of relevant functional loss on a paper basis wherever possible.

<\/p>

In exceptional circumstances, where a claimant is unable to deal with the Department by telephone and has no one to help them make the telephone call, claimants can request a paper version of the initial claim form.
