[quote=Anonymous]Our son has ADHD and receives weekly OT session (45 min) on campus.  He goes to a private school and this is provided by an independent OT who comes to campus.  We have to cover the cost on top of tuition, which quickly adds up.

We don't expect it after every session, but is it normal that there is absolutely no feedback coming from OT?  After a month or two, I'd like to hear a summary of what areas he is working on, progress he is making, something we can incorporate at home, or just "something" especially considering how much we are paying.  The only thing we hear from her is an automatic weekly SMS for credit card payment confirmation.

When we finally asked for some updates, we were told to make an appointment for “consultation” with additional hourly fee.  This is the OT who did “full” OT evaluation for $1k, and it was silly of us to assume that an hour of consultation to discuss key findings was included in the fee, not to mention the report even had our son’s name wrong.

Our 5 yo son cannot tell us much about his school life in general, but recently he kept telling us that the main OT did not come, but his session was with another lady, who is a fresh out of college young lady or other times with recently hired intern.

Is it rude to ask the qualifications of these two ladies? And/or reduced rate?
After finding an in-network OT provider, we suggested to the school we may want to go with them, the school staff clearly seemed bothered and insinuated that it’s best to stay with the OT on campus for seamlessly integrated environments.

I’d hate to say this but something feels off, like some sort of collusion with some kick back, or something.  Do I sound crazy?[/quote]
