[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, it’s only an issue if you are using insurance. If you are full pay, you can get any of these services in a “reasonable” amount of time. It’s not fair but that is how the system works. I called a week ago to schedule a neuropsych and have an appointment for my daughter the first week of January. [/quote] This. Full pay patients can get a neuropsych in reasonable time, but social skills groups and therapies are often still very overbooked. [/quote] That’s true- you can get faster testing with $$$ but since I am yet to find a child therapist who takes insurance that doesn’t help speed things up at all in my opinion. Treating pediatric psychiatrists are also so so so backed up- I called every name on the list of recommendations including plenty that were private pay and it still was 6 months to a new patient appointment. My child is pretty young though; I think it’s a bit better if you have a tween/teen [/quote]
