Review NHS approach to shared care for ADHD medication.

Closed 737 signatures

What the petition asks

We would like the Government to review the NHS's approach to shared care for ADHD medication in England.
The wait time for ADHD assessments can be very long. GPs can sometimes refuse shared care arrangements with private providers which relate to the prescribing of ADHD medication. We think this ends up costing the NHS more and causes mental health risks.
