It's true. Frida has a financial assistance program available, where our company will subsidize the costs of your diagnosis for you.

The best way to learn more about our program and its requirements is to contact our support team at support@talkwithfrida.com. They will provide you with more information, and let you know the income thresholds for application and what you need to do to apply for for financial assistance.

Unfortunately Affirm is unavailable as a payment option for those receiving financial assistance from Frida.

Affirm is a short-term financing provider that allows Frida patients to split their diagnostic assessment fee into small monthly payments, without any interest or fees.

Our hope is that with Affirm, accessing a diagnosis becomes easier for our patients.

If your self-assessment has deemed the Frida program a good fit for you, you will be presented an option to book your first consultation appointment with our clinical team.

Before you complete your booking, you will be presented an option to pay with your credit card or with Affirm. Simply select Affirm as your payment option and you will be taken to Affirm’s website to complete their process before being returned to Frida.

If you choose to pay your diagnostic assessment fee through Affirm, you will be redirected to Affirm’s website to process your short-term loan and payment details. 

Affirm will ask for your information through a secure, encrypted site and if approved, show you the payment amount and frequency that is available to you. 

You will be able to split your diagnostic assessment fee over several monthly payments.

Affirm is a reputable financing provider that many brands use to assist customers with payments.

Affirm uses a variety of methods to keep their network and client information safe, and meet all industry standards to protect their client information. Affirm’s policy is to never share your information with third parties. 

Unfortunately, Affirm is only available for payment of Frida’s diagnostic assessment. 

Frida has designed our on-going treatment fee to be as accessible as possible at $29 per month.

Continuous care is an option service from Frida that provides ongoing clinician appointments, medication management (including free delivery where applicable), and unlimited messaging with our care team for just $29 a month with no commitments.

While continuous care isn't mandatory, it's a crucial part of what we offer, and we strongly encourage anyone who receives an ADHD diagnosis to join. Following up on your diagnosis with the right treatment, provided by people that really get ADHD, is the best way to create the change you're looking for.

Those who receive a diagnosis through Frida will be auto-enrolled into our Continuous Care 30 days after their initial appointment. You may cancel your enrolment at any time.

You will be able to claim Frida's diagnosis & treatment costs if your private insurance plan offers a health spending account.

However, the cost is not covered by private insurance plans that do not have a specific health spending account.

You will be charged for your Frida membership 30 days after your first appointment with Frida if you receive a diagnosis and medication-based treatment plan.

Medication (if prescribed) is not included, but private/public insurance and Frida financial assistance lower the cost of medication.

We'll work with you to find the lowest cost option.

The cost of medications varies. We can help you lower the cost of almost all the first-line recommended treatments for ADHD in Canada, as per the Canadian ADHD Practice Guidelines. 

For people with private insurance, we can usually help you access medication for $0 to $10 per month.

For people without private insurance, the cost is roughly $75 per month.

One of the best benefits of Frida's continuous care membership is access to medication at greatly reduced costs.

Over 70% of Frida patients pay less than $20 a month for their medication and 50% pay $0 per month.

If you're prescribed the brand name version of Vyvanse — one of the most common prescriptions for ADHD — Frida is able to offer a greatly discounted price through our continuous care program.

If you're prescribed a branded medication (such as Concerta or Adderall), the Frida care team will help you find and access co-pay assistance programs from pharmaceutical manufacturers to help you save more.
