Welcome to

ADO Medical

We’re here to partner with you
on the care of our mutual patients.

After taking our clinically rigorous assessment, your patient was diagnosed with ADHD. One of our clinicians has been meeting with them via telehealth appointments and prescribing medication.

With the upcoming end of the Public Health Emergency (PHE), we look forward to partnering with you on the continued care of our mutual patient.

Our Mutual Patient:

a backstory

During the pandemic

We prescribed ADHD medications to thousands of patients with ADHD, including our mutual patient, following a clinically rigorous assessment and diagnosis. Under the PHE, in-person visits were not required during the pandemic.

After the pandemic

As of May 11, pre-pandemic rules will be back in place and telemedicine companies will not be able to prescribe controlled substances without an in-person appointment on file. This would include many medications typically prescribed to individuals diagnosed with ADHD and other mental health disorders.

PHE UPDATES

On February 24, 2023, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) released its proposed rules for telemedicine and controlled medications.

Existing patient on controlled substance
If you are a current telemedicine patient prescribed a controlled substance prior to May 10, 2023, the DEA requires you to have a qualified referral on file no later than Nov 7, 2023, in order to continue treatment.

New patient after May 10, 2023
For a new patient after May 10, 2023, who wants telemedicine service to treat their ADHD, the DEA requires you to have a qualified referral on file before initiating treatment. This requirement also applies to a current telemedicine patient who is considering initiating new treatment with controlled substances.

Who

We Are

At ADO Medical, we proudly partner with Primary Care Providers to bring our secure and comprehensive online ADHD assessment, diagnosis, and treatment to patients. Our rigorous, 250+ question assessment uses reactive logic, patterned after the clinically comprehensive and thorough in-person assessment. Doctorate-level psychologists analyze each assessment and, if appropriate, provide a clinical diagnosis consistent with DSM-5 criteria. We offer assessment services in all 50 states. We currently offer medical treatment in 40 states.

We Operate

If you are looking to know more about us before you complete our attestation form, this list of what we do, and do not do, should answer your questions about our practices.

Assessments

WE DO

Work with doctorate-level psychologists to analyze assessments and provide a clinical ADHD diagnosis consistent with DSM-5 criteria or a diagnosis of exclusion.
