Article Synopsis
- Many children with disabilities do not receive Early Intervention (EI) services despite automatic eligibility due to limited knowledge and use of established conditions lists among pediatricians and EI personnel.
- A study involving surveys and interviews showed that pediatricians generally felt less informed about these lists compared to EI staff, leading to underutilization in making referrals and determining eligibility.
- Recommendations include enhancing the content of these lists and improving their accessibility and distribution to ensure eligible children receive the necessary services.
