[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP  here.  I was able to find someone but, we will have a 10 day gap in meds.  Trying to find out if the pediatrician will help.  [/quote]

You found a psychiatrist that takes insurance? If so, can you please share the name.  I really hope your pediatrician can help you out with the prescription. [/quote]
[b]Ton of psychiatrists take insurance. In fact we never had a psychiatrist that didn't take our insouciance and DS had issue since 4 years old.[/b] [/quote]

Can you please some names for the all the psychiatrists you know in the D.C. metro area that take insurance? This would really help a lot of us.[/quote]

+1. Where are “ton of psychiatrists” who take insurance.  Haven’t found one for adults or children.

[b]I suspect that the pp who found “a ton” has specialized insurance like Tricare for military families.[/b][/quote]

Very few psychiatrists and psychologists take Tricare. Johns Hopkins does but for those who live in Northern VA, driving to Baltimore once per week for therapy is very challenging and a 20 minute med management visit can turn into an entire day when you factor in traffic, parking at Johns, dropping the child back school and driving to work :-( We're thinking of moving to Maryland primarily to be able to access in-network mental health services.
