[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MERLD as a disorder does not exist anymore, but maybe if you post it every few weeks it will be put back into the DSM, right? Nice try Mary. [/quote] I'm not Mary? But the mom of the four-year-old above and me rld is exactly what my pediatrician put on her referral for speech therapy. Now her IEP says language impairment, so maybe that's the current term.[/quote] Her ped. should not be doing the evaluation and diagnosis. Why wait till 4? If its significant enough, I hope you also have her in private speech.[/quote] Her pediatrician did not diagnose her. That was the reason written on the referral for the evaluation with speech. There has to be a reason for insurance coverage. She does get therapy and has been for quite a while and also has an IEP.[/quote] Ok, makes more sense. Our ped cannot authorize therapy, only a developmental ped.[/quote]
