Chat with the Doc Part 2: Diagnostic Dilemmas in Autism

Description

Providers have been asking: Why does one child receive a particular diagnosis when another child with a similar presentation receive a different diagnosis? When children are evaluated by the EI medical diagnostic team, it may not be clear to the IFSP team why this happens. Using case presentations, Dr. Twyman will explain the systematic process of making a medical diagnosis.
