| Abstrakt: | A concerning trend has emerged in the diagnosis and treatment of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) that has a negative impact on care. Quite often, a clinician's diagnosis of ASD using DSM-5 criteria is no longer sufficient for individuals with ASD to access services. Insurance companies, school districts, and developmental disability agencies commonly require an Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) to be eligible for services.
