A neuropsychological evaluation requires up to 14 hours (3-8 in-person) to complete and involves the following:

• Initial consultation

• Record review (when applicable)

• Clinical interview (in-person)

• Testing (in-person)

• Scoring and data entry

• Interpretation and conceptualization

• Report writing

• Feedback session to discuss results and recommendations (in-person)

The in-person portions of the evaluation process are conducted over two appointments – the Interview and Testing Appointment, and the Feedback Appointment

Patients complete intake paperwork, including a financial agreement form and a personal history questionnaire. To secure one’s scheduled appointment date, the financial agreement form must be completed and returned to our office within 5 days of scheduling the appointment (via email, through our website, or via U. S. mail). Forms will either be emailed to you after scheduling or can be accessed and submitted through this website.

Appointments begin at 9:00 A.M. at which time you will meet with Dr. McFarland for a comprehensive clinical interview focused on the reason for the evaluation (e.g., relevant symptoms, timeline of symptoms, relevant medical history, etc.). Following the interview, you will complete 2-5 hours of testing with the technician. Breaks, including lunch, are taken as needed.

Following the completion of testing, your tests will be scored and a comprehensive report will be written that integrates information gathered during the interview with test data. The report summarizes the results of the evaluation and also provides detailed, personally-tailored recommendations.

Following completion of the report, our office will call you to schedule an appointment with Dr. McFarland in which the results of the evaluation will be reviewed with you, including diagnoses (if relevant) and detailed recommendations. You will receive a copy of the report at that time, along with a “Super Bill” that you can submit to insurance for reimbursement.
