Some of our customers can complete their Work Capability Assessment by telephone. If possible, you will receive a telephone call or a letter from the Centre for Health and Disability Assessments (CHDA) to invite you to attend a telephone appointment and to provide you with further details of the assessment.<\/p>\n

What to expect at your telephone assessment<\/h3>\n

A registered and qualified healthcare professional will carry out your telephone Work Capability Assessment. They will discuss your capability to do daily tasks with your disability, illness or health condition. The healthcare professional will ask you questions and note down your answers.<\/p>\n

The telephone assessment should last between 20 minutes and 1 hour, but could take longer if necessary. You can have someone with you at your telephone assessment to offer help and support. This would usually be the person who knows you best and understands you and your needs. For example, this may be a relative, support worker or friend but they must be 16 years old or over. If your support worker or friend cannot be with you in person as a result of the current Government guidelines on social distancing, we can add them to the telephone call. We will ask you for their number and they will need to be ready to answer the phone at the time of your appointment.<\/p>\n

How to prepare for your telephone assessment<\/h3>\n

Be ready for the healthcare professional to call you 10 minutes before the time of your telephone appointment. Ensure your phone is fully charged. Find a quiet place with good signal and no background noise. Think about what will make the telephone call more comfortable, for example using headphones and having a drink of water available.<\/p>\n

DWP has approved paper based, face-to-face, video and telephone Work Capability Assessments. <\/p>\n

If we invite you to have a Work Capability Assessment by telephone you will receive a telephone call or a letter from CHDA to invite you to attend an appointment and to provide you with further details. You do not need to contact us.<\/p>\n

I have been asked to make myself available for a telephone assessment why is this\/what is this about?<\/h4>\n

What if I want someone with me during the telephone assessment?<\/h4>\n

As with face-to-face appointments, you can have someone with you at your telephone assessment to offer help and support. This would usually be the person who knows you best and understands you and your needs. For example, this may be a relative, support worker or friend but they must be 16 years old or over. They may be able to speak on your behalf and can offer useful support. However, the assessment will focus on you and the answers you give.<\/p>\n

If your support worker\/friend cannot be with you in person as a result of the current Government guidelines on social distancing, we can add them to the telephone call. We will ask you for their number and they will need to be ready to answer the phone at the time of your appointment.<\/p>\n

The telephone assessment should last between 20 minutes and 1 hour, but may take longer if necessary.<\/p>\n

Telephone assessments are only appropriate in some cases. A Healthcare Professional will have reviewed the information you have provided and a face-to-face assessment would be needed so DWP make sure that you are paid the right amount of benefit.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
