Rejected petition Support right to choose assessments for ADHD and Autism

Remove the cap that the ICB's have introduced on RTC assessments for ADHD and Autism. It is important that diagnosis is made available outside of the long NHS waiting times, in order to reduce long term pressures on the NHS. Early diagnosis is essential to prevent long term MH needs.

These are under diagnosed conditions, despite the current political view and miscommunication that these are over diagnosed conditions. Early diagnosis, recognition and support will eliviate long term need forH support.
