As you may have noticed, our website is going through quite a bit of change. We're very excited about this new website look and hope to have it ready for you real soon. With this new site we'll be able to bring you the latest news on what's happening at the clinic, list upcoming events and even share with you the most recent photos from our wonderful kids that we see and treat each day.
Check back real soon to see the exciting new look that we're creating. We know you'll enjoy it and are sure that it will give you the most current information you need to be certain you've picked the right therapy clinic for your child.
Senate Bill 507 is currently being read for the second time by the Georgia Senate after a Senate Committee “favorably reported” on it back to them! This bill, if enacted, will really make the approval and prior authorization process for our clients with Medicaid much simpler again! Additionally, in its current form, if this bill passes, the number of units of therapy that a child would be entitled to (they would have to be medically necessary, of course) would return to previous levels, doubling from where they are now. This legislation would not only affect children covered by the CIS program, but would require the CMO’s to “play by the same rules”. This is very exciting, and much needed. Please check your Senator’s website and find out if they are co-sponsoring the legislation. If they are, thank them! If they’re not, ask them why not!
To find out more about the legislation, you can read the full Bill (quick read, only a few pages long) by following this link: http://www.legis.state.ga.us/legis/2007_08/sum/sb507.htm . For our Coweta, Carroll, Heard and Troup county families, if you haven’t done so already, please take a moment to write or call Senator Seabaugh’s office to thank him for co-sponsoring legislation that will positively benefit so many of our special needs children!
