I'm not sure if that is generally the case or not. It may well vary from place to place, as Housing Benefit is administered by local authorities (like council tax) rather than central government. So the place to go would be your local authority website or advice centre, or maybe the Citizens Advice Bureau.
I do remember a while ago when I was last receiving Housing Benefit they did ask me about whether I had any disabilities or not, but I'm not sure what the reason was exactly (I didn't know my diagnosis at that time, so took it no further.)
