Fees
We want our pricing to be clear from the outset with no hidden surprises. The price for all our services include initial screening, liaison with other services such as schools, universities or other professionals, and with family members, two assessment sessions, multidisciplinary diagnostic discussions, feedback session and comprehensive report including recommendations and signposting. Our adult offer, which is available to those over 21 or those who are no longer in education, is a different price to our child/young person assessment because it takes less time to carry out the family member interview and there is no liaison with schools/colleges/University.
Once you confirm that you wish to undertake the assessment we will request the full balance is paid before the assessment takes place.
Here is what you can expect to pay for the different assessments offered by Cornwall Autism.
