![You often hear about insurance companies being hard to deal with, and covering therapy for autistic kids is no exception. We’ve had to jump through a few holes in the past, but this latest one takes the cake. We switched insurance companies on February 1st and they wouldn’t cover Charlie’s therapy unless he got another autism diagnosis!

It’s not ideal, and I’m upset, but it could have been a lot worse. We got extremely lucky. So thank you to his developmental pediatrician and the therapy center who worked that out for us.

It sucks—I get it. something you can always do is tell the doctor that you were literally on call anytime, any day, and you’ll come in at the drop of a hat to take the place of a cancellation. I hope y’all as fortunate as we are when figuring out a way around insurance hurdles. 💕 [more in stories]](http://scontent-frt3-2.cdninstagram.com/v/t51.2885-15/e35/c98.0.1244.1244a/s320x320/84336408_620539495375207_7136195876578906094_n.jpg?_nc_ht=scontent-frt3-2.cdninstagram.com&_nc_cat=107&_nc_ohc=I0MlaVcJHcgAX_HAEqk&oh=fb5e0cd268b81336794912d6940ebd96&oe=5EC83489 "You often hear about insurance companies being hard to deal with, and covering therapy for autistic kids is no exception.
