Overview
This presentation will focus on Autism ABCs for PCPs with a review of screening for autism, options for formal diagnosis, training opportunities for PCPs, and treatment options for use in primary care. Autism Spectrum Disorder has been increasing in prevalence. However, the wait time for autism assessment ranges from over 4 months to over one year. Many children and their families have to wait an average of three years for an autism assessment after concerns for developmental delays are identified; this delay is largely due to the lack of available specialists and the absence of a 'standard of care' for evaluation.
