2) Updated Autism Evaluations (children of all ages with current ASD diagnosis): If your child already has a diagnosis of autism and you are seeking an updated evaluation, please call to request a “CARS/GARS Plus Evaluation” appointment and we can typically accommodate you within 2-4 weeks. During these evaluations, we can also assess for additional co-morbidities, such as ADHD, in conjunction with ASD.
- 3) Katie Beckett/Deeming Waiver (KBDW), State Waivers, SSI, and NOW Comp Waiver Evaluations (0-18 years of age): If you are strictly seeking a Katie Beckett Deeming Waiver, State Medicaid Waiver/SSI, or NOW Comp waiver evaluation, we have openings starting next month.
