Rethinking ADHD
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is no longer just a childhood concern. While an estimated 5% of children and 3% of adults worldwide live with ADHD, growing awareness and evolving diagnostic practices mean that more adults are also being identified – often after years of unrecognised symptoms. This dual trend is reshaping healthcare and insurance, requiring underwriters and claims teams to adapt to a condition that follows many people throughout their lives.
ADHD is lifelong and can affect daily life and wellbeing. As diagnoses rise, we must look beyond risk and ensure families get the support they need.
