Total cost of Adult autism testing without insurance is $1200. With insurance is $900.

Includes letter confirming diagnoses and requests for accommodations.

Autism diagnostic testing includes full diagnostic testing for alternative or co-occurring diagnoses such as ADHD, Sensory Integration Disorder, OCD, PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, etc.

Insurance cannot be billed for initial psychological diagnostic testing. Insurance may be billed for subsequent follow up visits regarding treatment planning or medication management if Radical Healing is in network with the client’s insurance. Payment plans through AfterPay are available for testing and credit, HSA, and FSA cards are accepted. Testing may be billed at once or on a per visit basis. 

Prior to visit: 

• Client will submit any relevant records from the primary care provider, therapist, psychiatric provider, and psychological testing, particularly if the client has access to childhood records or testing.
• Client will sign release of information for current primary care provider, therapist, and psychiatric provider.
• Client will complete the required diagnostic surveys prior to initial visit.

• Initial Visit- interview and information gathering visit- 60 minutes (block 75 minutes in calender)

($450)

• Questionnaires and diagnostics surveys need to be completed prior to initial visit.
• Additional surveys may be required after information has been collected in the initial interview.
• All new diagnostic surveys and testing must be completed and submitted prior to the ADOS visit.

• ADOS visit with client- 60 minute visit (block 75 minutes on calendar). ($450)

Some clients will require IQ testing in order to qualify for the ADOS-2 exam. The IQ testing allows the provider to determine which ADOS-2 to administer. Outside psychological testing that includes IQ testing is acceptable for this. If the provider needs to administer IQ testing, an additional 60 minute visit (75 minutes blocked on provider calendar) will be required prior to the ADOS-2 exam visit. The cost of this testing is $350 and is not covered by insurance. 

• Treatment planning visit- 45 minute visit (block 60 minutes on calendar). ($300)

• In this visit, the provider will discuss the final diagnosis with the client. The client and the provider will discuss accommodations, therapies, medication options, and plans for ongoing care if needed and mutually agreed upon.

***Visit #3 may be billed to insurance if the provider is in network. This would reduce the out of pocket cost by $300***

Any follow up visits after the initial testing protocol will be determined by the treatment plan agreed upon between the provider and client. Some clients may not need further follow up. Some clients may choose to pursue medication management with Radical Healing or support with accommodations. All clients on controlled medications are required to have a follow up visit EVERY THREE MONTHS at a rate of $200/visit or otherwise determined by insurance.
