[quote=Anonymous]I agree with others, I would if at all possible pay out of pocket for a neuropsych exam so you can get the full picture. If that is truly not possible, I would get an OT eval asap. The reason I say neuropsych before only going OT is OT is likely one of the treatments he needs, for sure. But OTs are not trained to diagnosis in many of these disorders and I see many people start with ots because they feel more comfortable other it but it slows down diagnosis and overall treatment sometimes in my opinion because the OT isn’t giving them the bigger picture. So at this age, I would get the full picture if there is any way to prioritize this financially. We have also had to pay out of pocket for a lot of therapies. Not everything is covered by insurance. If you need it covered, it’s of course understandable - get on the KKI and children’s hospital lists this morning so he can at least get one next year [/quote]
