[quote=Anonymous]Neuropsych typically is short for neuropsychological evaluation. You can also get a different use of evaluation from a psychiatrist that won't look as much at the educational pieces I think. We did a neurodevelopmental (same as a neuropsych but not with all the tests because many of the tests are not valid for kids under 6 or 7 I think) evaluation for our kid. No regrets. It was what was recommended to us to accurately learn if our child had autism. We haven't followed all of the recommendations in it and some have not been needed but the ones we did follow have been so useful. And just having the diagnosis has been really helpful. Not financially, but for getting a 504 plan at school from an early age and for understanding our child and her strengths and how her brain works.[/quote]
