A psychoeducational evaluation is provided by a diagnostician. It is a comprehensive assessment designed to evaluate various aspects of a student's cognitive, academic, emotional, and behavioral functioning. These evaluations are typically conducted to identify learning disabilities, developmental delays, emotional or behavioral disorders, and other factors that may impact a student's academic performance and overall well-being. Learn more about the components and process of a psychoeducational evaluation and consultations provided by a diagnostician.
-
Review: Within the consult services, our diagnostician will review your child’s most recent evaluation, and ARD paperwork, answer questions you might have about the process or services, and ensure the IEP is aligned to the designed disability conditions within the evaluation.
Consult: After reviewing the paperwork, our diagnostician will review my findings with you, provide recommendations, and next steps to take to continue advocating for your child. These recommendations can be taken back to the ARD committee for consideration. It is important to note that these recommendations do not have to be accepted by the ARD committee, but can provide additional talking points to continue supporting the students academic growth.
Support: This service is not intended to be an advocate service, but to provide clarification, build knowledge, and support to the parent. Our diagnostician will not attend ARD meetings, but will empower the parent to advocate independently.
If the findings within the consultation indicate the need for additional assessment, it will be discussed, and in what areas are needed. The parent/guardian will then decide if they want to have the additional evaluation completed.

As of January 1, 2022 The No Surprises Act requires providers to inform their uninsured and private pay patients that they have a right to a “Good Faith Estimate” to help them estimate the expected charges they may be billed.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers can provide patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including speech therapy services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including speech therapy services. Please let us know if you would like one!
You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (800) 985-3059.
