[quote=Anonymous]I work in a pediatricians office and complete these on a regular basis - many who have ASD.

Your child should qualify.

1. Apply for Medicaid for your entire family (even though you are over income.) Answer the question that you have a child with special healthcare needs (can't remember what #question it is.)

2. You will be denied, but they will send you the Katie Beckett application.

3. Have your pediatrician complete it in it's entirety also with a letter of medical necessity. Have them sent all of that + the clinical documentation to you (you have to submit everything.)

4. Submit it to DC Health Check

If the application is done correctly, you should be approved quickly and that will get your child HSCSN.

There are folks out there who try and scam parents by charging them to complete the forms (though they aren't able to actually sign them.) You do not need to pay to have these completed (unless your doctor's office charges a typical fee for forms.)

Hope this helps. :)[/quote]
