Dear Senator ______________
I am writing to request you take immediate action to support and co-sponsor Clay's Bill as presented by Senator Howard Stephenson. This bill would require private health insurance companies to approve payment of Applied Behavioral Analysis and other therapy claims for children with Autistic Specturm Disorder.
As a parent/neighbor/family member etc. to a child diagnosed with Autistic Spectrum Disorder, I understand the urgent need for this legislation. The therapy available to the majority of these children is limited by the cost to their families. Some children are unabel to receive proven treatments for Autism Spectrum Disorders due to the high costs.
Passing Clays bill will allow better and more therapy to autistic children. More families will find speech, occupational and physical therapy to be affordable with the cost share of their insurance companies.
Thank you for your time and thank you very much for your suppoprt of our children who need your attention. If you need additional information regarding Clay's Bill, please contact Senator Howard Stephson.
Sincerely
Include your name, address, phone number and email – the more contact information you leave, the better chance you will receive something back.
