NHS Right to Choose
Understanding Right to Choose and what it means for you and your care.
What is NHS Right to Choose?
In England, NHS patients have a legal right to choose healthcare providers, this includes who carries out an autism, ADHD or combined assessment.
Via Right to Choose your GP may ask you to select the service you want (if deemed clinically appropriate), or you can ask them to refer you to us at Evolve. The assessment is paid for in full by your local NHS or your local Integrated Care Board- ICB.
As an approved NHS provider of autism and ADHD assessments for 0–19-year-olds (this is up until the 19th birthday) we hold multiple ICB contracts across England. We are able to also offer autism assessments for adults through Right to Choose, and all of our assessments are undertaken in accordance with the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (N.I.C.E) Guidance and are of a ‘gold standard’.
