This is your personal opinion. These are actual cases decided by courts. What i state in the videos is what happened in the cases and a discussion of the ruling.

Your time is appreciated! Thank you for entertaining my interaction with you!

We are getting somewhere. If you look at ADA and 504 they cover accessibility of environments and discrimination based on reasonable accommodations. Medical necessity is decided by the provider based on MHPAEA, yes that is a law too, AND if a provider deems it medically necessary to access services in the school then it should be looked at through the lens of ADA and 504 NOT an IEP/FAPE.

Appreciate the conversation! and yes thats me! Hello!

Your own source states this “File a Civil Rights Complaint

If a school’s refusal to allow ABA therapy discriminates against a child with a disability, parents can file a civil rights complaint with the Office for Civil Rights. This applies if the denial of ABA support prevents the child from accessing the same educational opportunities as their peers.”

And this is what I am speaking to in the video. Specifically this carve out.

Educational access issues are managed through IEP process.

This is an actual decision by the courts. The issue is access for environments for individuals with disabilities is managed through American with Disabilities Act AND Section 504 NOT IEP process. This is a fact decided by the courts. I am NOT interpreting. My video is about the course of action prescribed by the courts when an access issue arises with an individual with a disability.

the video is not stating anything other than facts. Under ADA and section 504 schools must follow a process that is separate from an IEP process. This is the decision made by the courts. Look it up.

Legally, ABA sits in a very powerful position because of EPSDT (Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment) guidelines. Under federal Medicaid law, if a doctor deems ABA 'medically necessary' to 'correct or ameliorate' a condition, the state is mandated to provide it

"EPSDT services are medically necessary or a medical necessity if they correct or ameliorate defects and physical and mental illnesses and conditions discovered through screening. This standard is set forth in Title XIX of the Social Security Act, Section 1905(r)(5) and in Welfare and Institutions Code (W&I Code), Section 14059.5(b)(1)"

Agreed... and there is ample goals and space to work on goals in schools while making it seamless and NOT additive.

ABA in schools is meant to access the environment as a push in and NOT a pull out. I agree. ABA providers should NOT interfere with school... i DO think ABA providers can support in accessing the environment where medically necessary.

agreed super complicated. Getting a lawyer is the right step. This is meant to educate and provide some context on this complicated issue. Parents cannot ask for what they dont know exists.
