Getting Started

How We Operate - Partnerships

The LSF Project collaborates with ABA providers and other treatment organizations to support timely access to care.

While we work closely with partner clinics to coordinate assessment logistics, all diagnostic evaluations and determinations are made independently by our psychologists. This model allows families to move forward efficiently while maintaining clear clinical and ethical boundaries between diagnosis and treatment.

Insurance & Payment

The Neurodevelopment Project does not bill insurance directly.

  • ACT charges a flat fee of $1,200 for diagnostic services.
  • Payment is made directly to the Neurodevelopmental Collaborative
  • Families may receive a detailed superbill following completion of the evaluation.


Superbills can be submitted by families to insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement, depending on individual plans. Families are encouraged to contact their insurance provider directly regarding reimbursement.
