[quote=Anonymous]Complete newbie here. I am looking into testing for dyslexia/dysgraphia for my DC in 3rd grade and am planning to phone some psychologists whose names I have been given. I see there are options for comprehensive diagnostic evaluations, targeted evaluations, consultations, etc. I don't believe there is an issue of ADHD (concentration and attention are good). My two main questions right now for those of you who have been through it are: - Is it a really bad idea to ask for targeted evaluations (not ADHD or other ones) since we don't feel those things are issues and the testing is so expensive? - Is there any route to having this type of testing that would be covered by our Aetna insurance? TIA[/quote]
