Both the report and scoring should be completed within 48 hours to ensure a smooth transition to the ADI-R clinician. The ADI-R (Autism Diagnostic Interview – Revised) includes a 1–1.5 hour structured interview, with a 1–2 page report covering DSM-5 criteria. Reports are expected within 5–8 working days. Prior to their appointment, all patients will complete a detailed pre-assessment questionnaire and an informant questionnaire. To help maintain consistency, suggested report templates are provided.
