What’s involved in assessments, and how long does the process take?

It involves a review of prior documentation, several hours of testing on multiple days, clinical case building, conferencing, review of current … literature, scoring, analysis, and writing. Time frames for testing depend on factors such as insurance and appointment preferences. For patients using insurance, the process takes four to six months.
