Im currently waiting on a professional to fill out the DSP Medical Report i gave him, its been over a month. Last reply i got when i reminded him was he hasn't forgotten and he's busy doing his BAS and tax return. I message him weekly.
Looking at the DSP Medical Report its just yes or no answers. Its not like he has to write an extensive report, which is what i think he's going to do. Im worried he's going to write up a report and it will be irrelevant/invalid
Im thinking of making another appointment and bringing in all the supporting documents again and the new DSP Medical Report (recently updated on the SSRV site) Am i on the right track, it just seems wrong for me to show the Dr what he has to do, and im worried me pushing to get it done might work against me.

G'day boxr unfortunately many doctors don't understand how to address the requirements correctly to make an application stand up to Centrelink's rigorous approval process. It isn't as though you'd be telling him how to go about actual diagnosis etc. Also unfortunate is the fact many doctors don't like having suggestions given to them on filling out medical forms for Centrelink. IMO this is due to them not understanding what needs to be prioritized...... i.e. not the actual conditions themselves, they are irrefutable; but how they actually impact on your ability to work. Everything is skewed though; towards Centrelink's warped positive ideology i.e. what you can do, rather than what you can't. Can being a positive connotation, can't being a negative one in their minds. But if you can't you can't IMHO. I don't envy you your decision but, welfare rights knows how the process works, and the format required to give your application the best chance of success. GP's failure to understand how the application MUST be presented is one of the main reasons of failure. So if you end up at AAT, they have to do it all again to provide full disclosure to the tribunal. Perhaps show him welfare rights stated position, and may it all work out for you. Cheers bear
