[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with PPs. You don't need to pay $$$ for CAAT's eval - you can get that through the school system or CNMC/KKI covered by insurance. Not sure any of it makes any difference for a kid with ASD - just get them what they need in terms of speech therapy, OT, PT if needed. Who cares about the exact diagnosis? I guess unless you need it for ABA to be covered by insurance- if your child needs ABA[/quote] I read a lot of evaluations professionally. The evals from children's are much, much less thorough and their recommendations much more cookie cutter than at CAAT. If all you need is a diagnosis and your child fits the stereotypical autism presentation, then children's is fine. But if you have good OON coverage/can afford it, you will learn more about your child's strengths and challenges and get better ideas for how to approach them through a CAAT evaluation.[/quote]
