Questions families ask
Getting started
Where should we start?
Call our team at 651-441-6245 or email info@kidscareinc.com. We’ll talk about your child, answer your questions, and explain the intake process, including any assessment or documentation needed.
Does my child need a new assessment?
We first review your child’s current Comprehensive Multi-Disciplinary Evaluation (CMDE). If a valid CMDE is already in place, we can move on to creating an Individual Treatment Plan.
A new CMDE is completed only when needed.
What should I have ready when I call?
It helps to have your child’s most recent evaluation, if they have one, and your Minnesota Health Care Programs or insurance information. You don’t need everything in hand to start the conversation.
Coverage
Can you help me understand coverage?
Contact our team with your Minnesota Health Care Programs or insurance information. We can help you understand the next steps for checking coverage and eligibility before services begin.
What is EIDBI?
Early Intensive Developmental and Behavioral Intervention (EIDBI) is a Minnesota benefit for eligible children with autism spectrum disorder or related conditions. Our team can talk you through how it relates to your child’s care.
