Educational vs Medical Diagnosis
Even though a child may have received an autism diagnosis in a school setting, this educational diagnosis does not qualify as a medical diagnosis. A medical diagnosis does not replace an educational diagnosis. Therefore, depending on the services the parent/ guardian is seeking for their child, an additional diagnosis may be required.
