Special Announcement:  On November 21^st IBC will host a conference for parents and professionals at the Eden Resort in Lancaster, Pennsylvania to explain the Medicaid funding system for Behavioral Health Rehabilitation Services (BHRS, often mistakenly called "wraparound" services in Pennsylvania) and describe how Medicaid funding for necessary treatment services for children can be easily and consistently obtained, how to identify the components and characteristics of excellent behavioral treatment services, and how to retain Medical Assistance (MA) funding for needed behavioral treatment services until the treatment plan is finished.  The keynote address will be by Dr. Robert Cormany, Executive Director of the Pennsylvania Association of Pupil Services Administrators (PAPSA).  This information was presented to an enthusiastic audience at the bi-annual Training Institutes in Nashville in July, along with outcome research at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on more than 300 individual treatment plans for children with Autism spectrum disorders, ADHD and other conditions that found our treatment model to be associated with substantial behavioral change in children and worthy of further study.
