Question about Seeking Diagnosis

Hello Mia, welcome to the site.

There are some quite useful articles in the help section here about what to expect from the diagnosis:

If you have a referral letter but no assessment provider given to you then I would go back to the insurance company and ask how they do this - I would imagine they have a recommended company they use where they would normally do the running to arrange and pay for it, but if not it is best to get their procedure in writing from them.

Once you know then let us know if there are still any doubts or questions and we can offer some targetted suggestions on what to do.

There is a lot to digest and process now so have a look at the articles and join us to talk about your thoughts and needs - we are a particularly good resource for helping people through this sort of thing.

thank you
