What is Neuropsychological Testing? Neuropsychological testing involves a battery of standardized tests given by a neuropsychologist to measure the way the brain functions. Neuropsychological evaluations are often used to detect neurologic diseases or the impact of damage to the brain on functioning. Additionally, Neuropsychologists are asked to monitor recovery or progression of central nervous system disorders. Who is a Neuropsychologist? A Neuropsychologist is an individual with training in the neurosciences and the administration of tests to measure brain-behavior relationships. Why does my doctor want me to have this done? Neuropsychological testing can help your doctor in diagnosing your illness,

planning your treatment or rehabilitation, and in determining if there have been any changes in the way your brain functions since a previous evaluation. While a CT or MRI can give information about the structure of the brain, and an EEG describes its electrical activity, Neuropsychological testing tells your doctor about how your brain is working in regard to higher brain functions. What can I expect the day of my evaluation? The typical evaluation takes 3 -6 hours to perform. No invasive procedures are involved. Will my insurance pay for this service? Neuropsychological services are considered by insurance companies a medical procedure. Most insurance companies will pay for this service. We will make efforts to determine your

coverage for this procedure and will file claims for you with the insurance company. Where will my test results go? After testing is completed, the results will be discussed with the doctor who referred you for testing and a report will be prepared and forwarded to your doctor's office. Additional Questions? If you have additional questions concerning this procedure, please feel free to contact us at 572-5220. Center for Pediatric Neuropsychology 777 Washington, Suite P235 Memphis, TN 38105 901-287-5220

Dear Parent, The evaluation is set up as a two part process. The first visit is designed to allow me to watch your child and get pertinent information from you so that I will know what we need to do and approximately how long it will take for us to do the evaluation. The second part is the evaluation by a technician. After the evaluation is completed, I will go through the process of interpreting the findings, writing the report, and making recommendations. You will need to schedule this when you come in for the evaluation. Billing for neuropsychological evaluations is done by calculating the number of hours for the actual evaluation, the time required to score and interpret, and the time required for writing the report and making recommendations. I have read and agree with the procedures for determining billing ___________________________ ______________________ Parent or guardian Date
