The Hidden Costs of Not Treating ADHD

About this webinar

ADHD360 CEO, Phil Anderton, hosted our recent webinar, ‘The Hidden Costs of Not Treating ADHD: Giving Patients THE Argument to Get the Care They Deserve,’ on Thursday 6 March.

In this session, we explored the key findings from “The ADHD Crisis in the UK – A Call to Action,” a report commissioned by ADHD360 and prepared by Loop Dynamics Group Ltd. The report highlights the huge economic and social costs of untreated ADHD, alongside the life-changing benefits of early diagnosis and treatment.

Key findings include:

• Undiagnosed ADHD costs the UK economy billions through annual household losses of £6,500-£11,200.
• The cost of NHS expenditure treating co-morbid conditions could reach £1.33bn-£5.78bn over a decade.
• For every £1 invested in ADHD diagnosis and treatment, a 16 x ROI could be achieved per patient over 10 years, equating to a total potential saving of £1.92 billion (based on 15,000 patients annually).
