MPU costs
What is the average cost of an MPU?
The average cost of a pure MPU assessment is between around 400 and 950 euros. The prices vary so greatly because, on the one hand, it depends on the specific reason for the MPU and, on the other hand, the prices are not standardized. It is therefore advisable to compare the individual assessment centers. These average values serve as a guide. The actual costs may turn out to be slightly higher or lower.
However, the total costs of an MPU are usually significantly higher. In the case of alcohol or drug offenses, proof of abstinence is often also required, which contributes to the overall costs with laboratory tests such as hair or urine analyses. Other individual factors, such as the duration of the necessary abstinence and, of course, the type and scope of preparation, can also have a significant impact on the costs.
