[quote=Anonymous]A lot depends on how it is billed. For Celiac, we got insurance coverage because the nutritionist was at the doctor's office and it was billed as part of a doctor visit. DSM V does not recognized Sensory Processing Disorder, so you can't get coverage for that. If it is billed as occupational therapy for autism, you might get coverage, depending on how "autism friendly" your coverage is. Some insurance companies try to exclude certain services for autism because treating autism is expensive and there is a perception that nothing really helps (even though this isn't really true). The easiest way to find out is to ask your provider what diagnosis code and procedure codes they would use, then call your insurance codes and ask if they cover those codes. [/quote]
