Re: insurance exclsuions of autism

[Guest guest]

In TN kids with autism are only allowed certain treatments until the

age I think 8 or 9. It was said this deal was made to keep insurance

lobbyists from fighting the bill. I say it's because, evidently, no

one feels a kid over 8-9 is worthy of helping. They can use all the

excuses they want, why would an elected official listen to a lobbyist

anyway...I know, they're all crooks.

Sondra, I do hope it is passed for all of you there in Ohio! I hope we

can get something better than what we have in the future here in TN.

I agree that there should be no exclusions for someone who was born

that way. It wasnt their fault.
