Referral and contact

Referral and shared care

Shared care required: No (reported by the provider)

Reported by the provider

Shared care

“No. We don't require this for patients to continue to receive their treatment via the NHS but we will always request shared care with the GP once stable. If the GP declines, we can continue to monitor and prescribe with no charge to the patient.”

From ADHD UK
Psicon has not given us referral instructions. Your GP refers you through NHS Right to Choose. Check Psicon referral information before you see your GP.

Waits by NHS area

Some NHS areas have a separate reported wait because they cap Right to Choose or have a local contract. In other areas, Psicon's usual wait applies.
