The DWP five main health conditions that lead to PIP claims Individuals living with certain health conditions could be entitled to payments of up to £184.30 a week through Personal Independence Payments (PIP).
As of the end of October 2024, these are psychiatric disorders with 1,406,044 claimants (37%), general musculoskeletal disease with 691,426 claimants (20%), neurological disease with 470,380 claimants (13%), regional musculoskeletal disease with 434,670 claimants (12%), and respiratory disease with 138,534 claimants (4%).
However, it's not practical to list all 536 conditions recorded by the DWP during the PIP application process, as an award for any of the benefits mentioned is determined by how the condition affects the individual, not the condition itself.
More than 530 health conditions are supported through disability benefits such as PIP, Disability Living Allowance (DLA), and Attendance Allowance.
This means every PIP claim is unique to each applicant, which could also help those considering making a new claim to start the process, according to the Daily Record.
