Special Report: The Soaring Cost of ADHD Care

Ongoing ADHD care costs thousands of dollars each year, according to ADDitude readers who report paying unsustainable out-of-pocket costs and employing extreme measures just to stay afloat.

Rising costs are causing people to ration medication, delay or skip medical appointments, and forego helpful interventions, according to a new ADDitude magazine survey. Of the 1,790 survey respondents, about 25 percent cited out-of-pocket medical costs as a limiting or determining factor in accessing ADHD care; 21 percent said ongoing care is not covered by their insurance; and 16 percent said their ADHD medication costs are not covered at all.
