Intake Process
What documents are required?
In order to check the benefits, we will need to collect the following info/documents:
- Basic demographic information for the parent/caregiver and individual who will receive the services.
- In addition, you will have the opportunity to upload pictures of your insurance card (front and back), and
- Any diagnostic reports verifying a qualifying diagnosis.
To obtain authorization for services based on the individual’s current need we will need to obtain the following documents:
- Referral for ABA Services. The referral must include a physician’s order for behavior analysis services. The referral must contain the client’s diagnostic and ICD 10 Code.
The recipient must be referred to by an independent physician or practitioner qualified to assess and diagnose disorders related to functional impairment, including:
- Primary care physician with family practice, internal medicine, or pediatrics specialty
- Board certified or board eligible physician with specialty in developmental behavioral pediatrics, neurodevelopmental pediatrics, pediatric neurology, adult or child psychiatry
- Child psychologist.
- Letter of medical necessity.
- Comprehensive diagnostic evaluation (CDE) performed according to national evidence-based practice standards.
CDEs may be performed by a multidisciplinary team or individual practitioner. In any case, the CDE must be led by a licensed practitioner working within their medical, developmental, or psychological scope(s) of practice. The CDE must include assessment findings and treatment recommendations appropriate to the recipient.
- Previous medical documentation from pediatrician, Neurologist, IEP or 504 from Public School.
- Signed consent
Our clinical team will then work to evaluate the referral and obtain an authorization for services based on the individual’s current benefits. Our team will contact us to provide a status update.
