[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. When children display more subtle signs of what could be various different diagnoses, what’s the ideal time for a neuropsych? As soon as possible so you can intervene—or later so it’s more accurate. Cost is an issue for us so would rather do it once. [/quote] If you did one now, you would almost certainly want to repeat it when the child starts elementary school, due to different needs/stages/etc. at that point. Please do not plan on only getting testing done once and receiving a definitive result at that time. I would personally be looking at his development and assessing for whether these issues create a functional impairment. Are they impacting kindergarten readiness, for example? I don't know that I would jump to neuropsych testing right now, but I would initiate a conversation with the OT about his progress/skills/development and how they think that will impact kindergarten readiness.[/quote]
