[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 567944"] I had easy child's IEP meeting yesterday afternoon. I was hopeful because his teacher was clearly on my side that there are issues that need to be addressed, but his grades have shot up in the past two months and that was really the sticking point. How can we really say that he needs assistance when he is clearly succeeding in the classroom? Mrs. H was really pushing for speech for him, but that was denied as well. The committee was arguing with me that our insurance will cover it because of his age (8 1/2). I told them that I spoke to them last week and that their policy is that they will not cover speech at any age because they consider if developmental. They will only cover it when the person loses speech due to accident or illness. They still would not give it to him and Mrs. H was not happy. After the meeting I pulled Mrs. H aside and told her that I did speak to our carrier last week and I didn't say it in the meeting because I was hoping they would give it to him, but our insurance has changed their policy in the last few months and they will cover speech, but only 10 visits a year. I already called the pediatrician and got the name of a speech therapist that they recommend, so I have to call them and see if they take my insurance. I don't know how I am going to fit this in [/QUOTE]
