Children and Families with Autism Need Your Help!!!
Please keep SB 399 alive and sign this bill! Californians with autism deserve insurance funding for whichever evidence-based treatment method their doctors prescribe for THEM. (No ‘one-size-fits-all’ medicine!)
Why is this important?
Families seeking help for autism are regularly denied insurance coverage for physician-prescribed, treatment. The myth that ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) is the only scientific approach is simply not true. Families deserve to receive ANY of the evidence-based treatments their doctors believe would be helpful. A “one size fits all” method doesn’t work for every patient... SB 399 ensures that families will have choices.
