I am only having a a partial neuropsychological evaluation and paid $1600.00. I am told it will give me enough results for evidence to get disability benefits and to direct me to what kind of treatment I need to pursue. The full evaluation is $4000.00 to $8,000.00. I know. Steep. Insurance will not pay. At least not the kind I have and I hear none of the U.S insurance companies will cover it either.
I need to have a sleep study done too which I hear is even more expensive and insurance does not cover. Guess I won't be getting that. Good luck to you.
