ADHD diagnoses in U S children rise past 10 percent
A JAMA Network study using the National Health Interview Survey reports ADHD diagnoses among U S children rose from about 6 percent in 1997 98 to over 10 percent in 2015 16. The increase is sharper in minority groups and in girls, with researchers noting better access to health insurance under the ACA and changes in diagnostic standards as contributing factors. Experts caution against labeling it a true epidemic, suggesting it reflects increased recognition and evaluation rather than a surge in the disorder itself.
