Understanding your Right to Choose
If you live in England, you have the legal right to choose who provides your NHS mental health care, including assessments for ADHD in adults. This means you can ask your GP to refer you to a provider like HealthHarmonie Minds, giving you access to faster, high-quality ADHD assessments at no cost to you.
Why use Right to Choose?
Getting an ADHD assessment through the NHS can come with a long wait time – often lasting over a year. By using your Right to Choose, you can be referred to an NHS-approved provider, like HealthHarmonie Minds, and get your assessment in just a few weeks. You’ll still receive NHS-funded care, but with quicker access and support from a trusted, independent team.
Who is eligible for Right to Choose?
You’re eligible if:
- You live in England
- You’re registered with a GP in England
- Your GP agrees that a referral for ADHD is appropriate
- You’re not already under the care of a local NHS mental health team for the same issue
If you’re unsure, speak to your GP or contact us – we’re happy to help guide you through the process.
