Assessment Fees
Private Psychoeducational Evaluation
At Achievement Advantage, we customize each assessment to fit our client’s unique needs. Typically, clients reach out to us to conduct a comprehensive psychoeducational evaluation focused on academic and executive functioning skills. This type of assessment generally costs within the $2000 range, depending on the assessment battery needed. Please contact us if you have any questions about the investment involved in your evaluation. We welcome inquiries and would be happy to learn more about your situation and make appropriate recommendations for your evaluation.
Independent Educational Evaluation (IEE)
An Independent Educational Evaluation is conducted at public expense. This means that the school district is directly responsible for the full cost of the assessment. For the cost of the IEE to be paid for at public expense, a formalized agreement between the school district and Achievement Advantage must be reached prior to the initiation of services. All evaluation components of an IEE are charged on the same fee schedule as a psychoeducational evaluation.
Orton-Gillingham (OG) Assessment
We specialize in assessments that align with Orton-Gillingham based structured literacy programs, such as the Wilson Reading System. This type of evaluation includes assessment of sound-knowledge, mastery of common letter patterns, and reading and spelling of different syllable types, in addition to concepts commonly found in structured literacy programs. An Orton-Gillingham assessment provides teams in-depth information for intervention planning. This type of evaluation usually costs approximately $750.
Assessment of Giftedness
Your assessment of giftedness will be customized to meet your individual needs. Depending on the type of giftedness suspected, the assessment battery can vary widely. This type of assessment typically ranges from $1,125-$1,300.
Post-Secondary Private Evaluation
Achievement Advantage conducts several types of post-secondary evaluations, depending on whether you are being initially diagnosed or have a longstanding history of learning concerns. The nature of the evaluation can greatly impact the cost of services. This type of assessment generally ranges from $1,500-$2,500 depending on the assessment battery neede. Please contact us if you have any questions about the investment involved in your evaluation. We welcome inquiries and would be happy to learn more about your situation and make appropriate recommendations for your evaluation.
Customized Assessment
At times, clients reach out to us having already completed an assessment with their school or other service provider, but they need more specific evaluations to address their concerns. We are able to provide a customized assessment to supplement an already completed evaluation. The cost of this type of assessment can vary greatly depending on the situation, and generally range from $500 and up. Please contact our office to inquire about this service and we can provide a more specific estimate.
Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item.
You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
