Right To Choose

The Right to Choose is an NHS policy in England that allows patients who have to wait over 18 weeks to be seen by an NHS service to have more control over where they receive treatment, including ADHD assessments.

This allows you to bypass the long NHS waiting lists by choosing an approved provider for your assessment and care, including some private providers. The NHS covers the cost, which can significantly reduce waiting times for an ADHD diagnosis.

Also, ask your doctor if they will accept a shared care agreement with your chosen ADHD assessment provider.
