Almost 57,000 people (aged 6-18 years) have received an objective assessment for ADHD since Academic Health Science Networks began to support a new digital innovation, QbTest.
The innovation, which speeds up the time to diagnosis, has improved patient experience and saved the NHS a potential £19.5m since 2017*. It is being used in 59 trusts across 113 sites - just over half of the NHS providers of ADHD assessments for this age group. Last night, the achievement was recognised by being awarded the HSJ Partnership Award for Best Mental Health Partnership.
