[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 369991, member: 8831"] no, a neuropsychologist(ologist) can't dispense medications, you have to take the reports to a doctor...but be forewarned...not [I]all[/I] psychiatrists are open to test results. you are totally doing the right thing by lining up all appts now. when you settle on a neuropsychologist, also find out how long it will take them to generate a report....i was shocked at how long it took. i couldnt find one either that accepted my ins, but for us, in the interest of time, we were looking privately and not through a hospital system. i was however able to get preapproval for some of the testing and i'm still waiting on reimbursement. i believe we got 2 hours out of 8 approved, and supposedly it was that the other hours were considered educational testing--it was a crock...i had the actual EDU testing done at the school, the neuropsychologist did diagnostic testing. but call your ins. company. if you have seperate mental health benefits start there. don't just go by the ins handbook. glad husband is on board--hope you get appts fast.
