[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, after 15 sessions in the past 5 months, we only heard from the private practice provider 3 times, each with 2 paragraph text.  Since we just got a spot at outside reputable OT provider, who is in-network for our insurance, after being on their waitlist for several months, we decided to transition.

Instead of 1 hour meeting ($150), we requested a written report summarizing what he's been working on, what the progress has been, what would be recommended areas to continue working on etc.  Just a quick one-page summary to share with a new provider.

In response to our request, she said re-evaluation can be done ($800) with a separate progress report ($400).

we don't need re-evaluation, we just need simple progress report, a summary of what has been done and observed.  How can I counter-argue?

I am frustrated after spending $2500 out of pocket, all we get is 3 short emails, each of which literally takes 5 minutes to write.

Does anyone have similar experience? or any advice?[/quote]

The problem with OT is they don’t take regular notes, regular data, regular anything. They might jot something down quickly to cover insurance but [b]it’s not a data driven profession. [/b]They only know if it’s working by doing an eval. Pick a better type of provider if you want more info- OT isn’t it. [/quote]

This is not true. The therapist sets measurable goals based on the evaluation needs and each session’s bot should reflect working on those goals and how the kid did on his trials [/quote]
