[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 111795"] Hi and welcome. A neuropsychologist evaluation is done by a Neuropsychologist. Some insurance cover it and some don't. It depends partly on what state you're in, as well as what it is uncovered during the evaluation. If they come up with something with a medical basis, such as anxiety, depression, bipolar, then they can get the insurance to cover it. Otherwise, insurance companies like to call it 'educational' and claim that the school districts should pay for it....very hard to get. Everyone (psychiatrist, tdocs, etc) was surprised when our insurance covered ours (Ohio is not a good state for health insurance and mental illness coverage), but I believe it's because the neuropsychologist used the anxiety diagnosis. A suggestion...it can be hard for a 5 year old to get into details of their day. When I would ask difficult child how her day was I was opening myself up for an all or nothing answer...and it was always, 'terrible'. So, I started asking specific questions: What did you study in science today? What did you work on in Centers? That kind of thing. There is a thread in the General Archives on ADHD and Executive Function that you may find useful. Welcome to the board. It's a wonderful community. [img]:flower:[/img] [/QUOTE]
