Program Description RSPMI Outpatient

Outpatient Occupational, Physical, and Speech Services

Ascent also offers occupational, physical, and speech therapy services on an outpatient basis for children who qualify. Upon referral from the child’s PCP, an evaluation(s) will be completed. If the child qualifies for one or more of these therapy services, a Prescription for Therapy Services (DMS-640) will be sent to the PCP for signature and referral for treatment. An individualized treatment plan will be developed by the appropriate professional. All children will be re-evaluated at least annually to determine need for continued services. When it is determined that the child no longer qualifies for therapy services, the treatment plan will be updated accordingly and services will be adjusted.
