[QUOTE="liz, post: 372635"] I am butterfly31972 but I cannot seem to post under that name anymore so I had to do a new profile. I tried to go to a neuropsychologist but they will not see me unless I: A) have a referral of Traumatic Brain Injury B) pay in cash ($1000'S UP TO $4000) Here is my issue: They are saying that insurance does not cover neuropsychologist testing in my area so I have to be prepared to pay in cash. My husband has insurance through his work. We pay alot as everyone does for this coverage. It is so frustrating because they said the insurance will cover the testing on my son unless I have a referral from a pediatrician of traumatic brain injury. My son (who was adopted) was broken into 6 pieces at 2 months of age by someone--we assume bio-dad but don't really know who. He has always been just fine according to the developmental experts until he started Kindergarten. Then he could not read to save his life. We are paying for Kumon and that has helped him but he was not able to catch up in order to pass Kindergarten. He is repeating and now that I was wanting to take him to a neuropsychologist to have him evaluated they are saying I have to pay cash. UGH! According to the school, he looks to be ADD but they are not sure if that is what is going on. He seems to have a processing problem. So we are thinking Central Auditory Processing Disorder? This stinks!!! I ran into this when I tried to make an appointment for my oldest who has ADHD.:frowny: What diagnosis can get me in to see a neuropsychologist with insurance coverage? [/QUOTE]
