[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 418639, member: 84"] Insurance and use of specific programs geared to treat specific dxes. The latter in my opinion being the most important. Also a more accurate treatment plan in many cases. Travis has Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD), other end of autistic spectrum. Without the diagnosis there are a number of programs and services he could not use without an official diagnosis. The same goes for his other dxes as well. Because he is legally blind he can use the services on both the local, county, state and federal level for the visually impaired......this alone opened up a ton of services he didn't have access to before the diagnosis. And often, while doing the evaluations and testing, other issues are found and can also be addressed, which can make a huge difference for a child. [/QUOTE]
