Following are some resources for the diagnosis of an autism spectrum disorder. Sometimes people seek a private diagnosis, either prior to or instead of seeking diagnosis through Regional Center. In light of California’s Autism Insurance mandate it is easier to access diagnostic services through health insurance. Call your insurance company and tell them you want an autism assessment and ask for their contracted provider(s).
