[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the PP immediately above this, and I wanted to point out that vision impairment and hearing impairment are also not in the DSM, and yet the school system and insurance companies absolutely address both of those. [/quote] Insurance reimbursement goes through ICD codes, not DSM dx. And insurance companies reimburse services, not diagnoses, anyway, so even if something is in the DSM does not mean that you're going to get any service for that dx covered. The insurance company may consider it medically unnecessary. [/quote] This is correct. And the way to find out in advance is to ask the provider what ICD and diagnosis codes they will bill under, then call the insurance co. to see if those codes are covered. [/quote]
