[QUOTE="Josie, post: 231100, member: 1792"] If you can afford it, I would pay out of pocket for the psychiatrist and/or the testing. We have paid for a psychiatrist and several doctors out of pocket and they have been the best doctors we have seen. I think it is because they can charge what they need/want and don't have to rush patients out the door to get to the next fee. We have always been reimbursed by our insurance for part of the cost, but by the time they figure the "usual and customary" rate and apply their percentage and the deductible, it isn't much. We are about to do a neuropsychologist exam on difficult child 2. Insurance will pay less than 10% of the cost. Apparently, that is what they paid for the one 4 years ago that was covered by insurance. I didn't find that one to be especially helpful but since they were paid so little, it makes sense to me, now. [/QUOTE]
