Online ADHD Assessment Costs
Prices vary quite a bit depending on the service:
Telehealth/Online Platforms
- Done (~$199 initial assessment) - straightforward process, relatively affordable
- Cerebral (~$99-$299) - includes evaluation and ongoing care plans
- Talkiatry - varies by insurance, often low copays if covered
- Ahead (~$149-$199) - focuses specifically on ADHD
Things That Affect Cost
- With insurance - often just a copay ($20-$50) if mental health is covered
- Without insurance - typically $150-$300 for an initial assessment
- Comprehensive neuropsychological testing - can run $1,000-$3,000 (usually in-person)
Budget-Friendly Options
- Teladoc or MDLive - may be cheaper through employer benefits
- Community mental health centers - sliding scale fees
- Check if your insurance covers telehealth psychiatry first
My Recommendations
- Start with Talkiatry if you have insurance
- Try Done or Ahead if paying out of pocket
- Avoid services with high monthly subscription fees if you just need an initial evaluation
