I have a question for parents who have or had a high functioning, fully verbal autistic preschooler.

My wife wants have Nerotherapy sessions for my son who is 7 to help him with communication behavior ect. It is not covered by insurance. I think medication would be better. Has anyone used Nerotherapy before and if so how was your experience with it? Thank You

We have insurance through my husbands job, however, our insurance does not cover ABA, and we make too much to be on medicaid.

Does anyone know what level of service Kaiser California considers ABA? Would it be a standard copay or a specialist copay.

Have you just bought an iPad and what app do you use for AAC?

As a parent who will soon have a working young adult child starting soon and I don't want him to lose his SSI if any of you parents or anyone who understands that my question is for example like do you work two days or just the weekend from what-to-what hours. I definitely continue with his therapy.

Our insurance doesn’t provide an extension authorization for ABA services without an updated assessment for ASD.
