  • I don’t have an offering for the XDA profile that you’re looking for, but a potential alternative. Consider the KAM profile as well.

    I used the XDA canvas set on a number of boards for about 5 years and recently switched to the KAM Superuser set on my Dactyl Manuform. The dishes on the top of the keys are very slightly smaller but the height and general profile are very, very similar.

    Thekeeblog has a nifty comparison chart that puts XDA and KAM side by side.













  • So my process was a bit out of order, but yes I was billed for a consultation as well as the assessment. I think after insurance my scenario was similar to yours. The Psychiatrist who I saw prior to my assessment (PCP referred me one step too far) suggested the online route as it would take 3 to 6 months to be assessed through conventional channels. I was also told it could cost as much as $3000 to $4000 for the assessment alone.

    I figured that I didn’t have much to lose. With the Psychiatrist themselves telling me that the diagnosis given through the online service was an actionable diagnosis, then why not give it a try. Seems that the site employs a team or teams of credentialed and certified psychiatrists to report on the questionnaires.

    Seems that the change in accepting a diagnosis from ADHDonline.com is a new thing as of this year or last.
