Online ADHD Assessment in Nunavut, Without a Referral

FasTreat connects eligible patients with regulated healthcare professionals for ADHD assessment, care planning and ongoing support through online appointments when clinically appropriate. You do not need a family doctor referral to begin, and your plan is personalized to your needs.

Yes. Eligible patients can begin without a family doctor or referral. In Nunavut, primary care is often delivered through community health centres rather than an individual family doctor - FasTreat supports an ADHD-specific pathway alongside this, but does not replace comprehensive family medicine or local primary care.

FasTreat currently displays a Canada-wide wait time of less than 24 hours. Individual availability in Nunavut may vary based on provider authorization, age eligibility, language, demand and clinical needs. This figure should be updated from the central website source.

Patients are matched with regulated healthcare professionals authorized to care for people physically located in Nunavut, licensed through the Nunavut Medical Registration Committee or CNNN for nursing professionals. The available professional type may include a physician or nurse practitioner, depending on the live roster and clinical needs.

Nurse practitioners can be verified through CNNN's Find a Nurse public directory. Physician licensing is administered by the Nunavut Medical Registration Committee through the Department of Health and Social Services.

Yes. You must be physically located in Nunavut so FasTreat can confirm eligibility and match you with an appropriately authorized healthcare professional.

If clinically appropriate, your provider may prepare documentation to support a school or workplace accommodation request. The decision and document format depend on the clinical assessment, available information and the provider's professional judgment.

Potentially. With your consent, FasTreat can provide a clinical summary and recommendations. The receiving professional decides whether to assume prescribing or participate in shared care according to their clinical judgment and practice policies.

Medication may be discussed after a clinical evaluation when it is appropriate and safe. A prescription is never guaranteed. Some patients may need testing, specialist care, local monitoring or an in-person assessment.

If medication is prescribed, it can be sent to an eligible pharmacy selected by the patient, subject to prescribing requirements, local pharmacy availability and fulfilment arrangements. FasTreat partners offer additional delivery and pricing options where available.

No. Diagnosis and prescribing depend on the clinical evaluation, safety considerations and the healthcare professional's judgment. Completing a questionnaire or attending an appointment does not guarantee either outcome.

FasTreat is a private, self-pay service and is not presented as an insured service under the Nunavut Health Care Plan. A receipt may be submitted to a private insurer or health spending account. Reimbursement depends on the plan.

Medication coverage may involve NIHB, territorial programs, private insurance and local dispensing arrangements. Coverage and delivery must be confirmed individually. Medication costs are separate from FasTreat service fees.
