2. Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASDs)
ASD must be diagnosed by a clinical psychologist, psychiatrist or specialist from Pedagogical-Psychological Counselling Centre. We cannot accept reports from other providers.
To arrange an ASD assessment, you can contact a private clinic such as My Clinic Prague or find other providers at Autismport. Please note that the clinics may be currently at full capacity.
If you hesitate to get an ASD diagnosis, you can make an appointment for diagnostic screening. If you're interested, please contact Veronika Kubíková , who can put you in touch with a diagnostic screening provider.
A diagnostic screening test is not sufficient for the university to register you as a student with specific needs.

If you pay cash, the cost of an assessment in NIMH is approximately 2500 CZK. The assessment may be covered by some types of the Health insurance. Please, contact the National Institute and ask for the conditions. Information can be also provided by your provider of the insurance.
