Can I get a receipt for insurance for an online ADHD assessment?
Quick answer
Yes. After your online ADHD assessment with Finding Focus, you receive an official, itemized receipt and the documentation needed to submit a claim to your private insurer, a health spending account (HSA), or for tax purposes. The receipt lists the provider, their credentials and licence number, the service, the date, and the amount paid. Whether you're reimbursed, and how much, depends on your specific plan's rules, not on Finding Focus.

Yes, Finding Focus gives you an itemized receipt to submit to your plan
Yes. When you complete an online ADHD assessment with Finding Focus, you receive an official, itemized receipt, the same kind of documentation a traditional clinic provides, that you can submit to a private insurer, a health spending account, or include with your tax return. Care is delivered by licensed Canadian nurse practitioners and clinicians, and your receipt reflects the provider's name, credentials, and licence number so your plan can verify the claim. What the receipt does not do is guarantee reimbursement: that decision belongs to your specific plan, which sets its own rules about which providers and services it covers.
Because Finding Focus uses transparent pricing, online ADHD assessments start at $399 (CAD), you'll know the exact amount that will appear on your receipt before you book, which makes it easier to check your coverage in advance. You can review current assessment and treatment pricing for the full breakdown, then confirm with your benefits provider what (if anything) they'll reimburse for a nurse-practitioner-led assessment.
Your receipt and report are itemized for claims
An insurance claim is only as strong as the paperwork behind it, so your Finding Focus receipt is itemized with the details a plan typically asks for. You can download or request it after payment, and you can ask for a reissued copy if you misplace it. A standard receipt includes:
- Provider name and credentials, the nurse practitioner or clinician who delivered your assessment, with their professional designation.
- Licence/registration number, many insurers require this to confirm the provider is licensed to practise in Canada.
- Clinic/business name, Finding Focus (by MoralityMed Inc.) as the billing entity.
- Date of service, when your assessment appointment took place.
- Service description, a plain description of the ADHD assessment service provided.
- Amount paid and payment method, the exact fee charged, which is what you'll claim through an HSA, insurance, or your taxes.
Separate from the receipt, a confirmed diagnosis comes with a written assessment report. Some insurers, and most workplaces and schools, ask for that report rather than just the receipt before approving certain benefits or accommodations. If you need it for your employer or school, here's how to get ADHD documentation for work or school accommodations and what to keep on file. Think of it this way: the receipt covers the money side of the claim, and the report is the clinical documentation.
Reimbursement depends on your specific plan, not your receipt
Getting a receipt is straightforward; getting reimbursed is where plans differ. Two people with identical receipts can get different outcomes because each insurance plan decides which provider types and services it covers. The most common variable is whether your plan reimburses care delivered by a nurse practitioner rather than a physician or psychologist, some plans do, some don't, and some only cover specific categories like 'paramedical' or 'mental health' services.
| Factor | Why it matters | Where to check |
|---|---|---|
| Eligible provider types | Plans differ on whether nurse-practitioner services are covered | Benefits booklet or insurer phone line |
| Service category | May fall under 'mental health', 'paramedical', or be excluded | Plan coverage summary |
| Annual maximums | Coverage can cap at a set dollar amount per year | Your benefits portal |
| Documentation required | Some plans want the receipt plus a diagnosis report or referral | Claim form instructions |
| Health spending account | Often more flexible, may cover what a base plan won't | HSA plan rules |
If you're not sure where to start, our overview of whether insurance covers an ADHD assessment in Canada walks through private extended-health benefits and the provider-type question, while whether an ADHD assessment is covered by OHIP explains the public-system side for Ontario residents. You can also claim through a health spending account, which tends to be more flexible than a base benefits plan.
How to submit your receipt for reimbursement
Once you have your receipt, submitting a claim follows the same steps as any other health expense. Here's the typical process:
- Confirm your coverage first. Call your insurer or read your benefits booklet to check whether a nurse-practitioner ADHD assessment is eligible and what the annual maximum is.
- Pay for your assessment and save the receipt. Download your itemized Finding Focus receipt and keep a digital copy somewhere safe.
- Gather any extra documents. If your plan asks for a diagnosis report or referral, request those before you submit.
- Complete your insurer's claim form. Most plans let you submit online, through an app, or by mail; attach your receipt and any required documents.
- Submit and track the claim. Note the submission date and follow up if you don't hear back within your insurer's stated timeline.
- Keep copies for taxes. Even if your plan reimburses only part of the cost, the remaining out-of-pocket amount may be claimable through the federal medical expense tax credit, keep your itemized receipt and review current Canada Revenue Agency rules or speak with a tax professional. It also helps to know the out-of-pocket cost of an ADHD assessment when you plan ahead.
