PSYCHIATRIC DIAGNOSTIC INTERVIEW
(cost $275) (procedure code 90791)
A
Psychiatric
Diagnostic
Interview
may
be
all
that
is
needed
in
your
situation.
A
Psychiatric
Diagnostic
Interview
is
the
first
step
in
all
neuro-psychological
testing
and
DOES
NOT
result
in
a
diagnosis.
Dr.
Smith
conducts
a
Psychiatric
Diagnostic
Interview
to
All
psychological
disorders,
other
learning
disabilities
and
ADHD
or
ADD
must
be
screened
for
when
considering
conditions
such
as
dyslexia
or
ADHD.
The
interview
results
in
a
brief
written
summary
of
preliminary
conclusions
and
recommendations
for
subsequent
action.
When
subsequent
testing
is
conducted
the
results
of
the
interview
are
incorporated
into
the
testing
report.
A
review
of
previous
testing
and
related
records
from
other
professionals
is
not
a
part
of
the
diagnostic
interview.
Such
information,
if
available,
can
be
very
valuable
to
the
diagnostic
process,
but
requires
considerable
time
for
adequate
review.
Consequently,
such
a
review
of
records
is
a
separate
procedure
from
the
diagnostic
interview
and
there
is
a
separate
charge.
Prior
to
scheduling
the
diagnostic
interview,
you
will
receive
forms
to
be
filled
out.
These
forms
must
be
thoroughly
completed
and
returned
prior
to
or
on
the
day
of
the
intake.
The
interview
cannot
be
started
until
the
forms
are
completed.
Incomplete
or
missing
forms
will
result
in
an
additional
charge.
(These
forms
will
remain
confidential).
Among
the
questions
to
be
answered
by
the
intake
interview
is
whether
testing
is
appropriate,
and
if
so,
what
kind
of
testing
is
in
order.
With
respect
to
the
latter
question,
recommended
procedures
fall
into
three
general
categories:
a
Record
Review,
or
a
Neuropsychological
Evaluation
to
evaluate
for
dyslexia
,
other
learning
disabilities,
ADHD
(ADD)
evaluation,
or
other
conditions.
The
charge
is
determined
by
what
conditions
are
under
consideration
and
the
amount
of
testing
involved
for
each
condition.

most
common
types
of
evaluations and costs can be found on the links below.
