Make AUTISM therapies accessible to ALL MILITARY D

 If you haven’t signed this petition please go on and do so! It only takes a few mintutes to do so and will help lots of kids including Samara! 

Make AUTISM therapies accessible to ALL MILITARY DEPENDENTS w/AUTISM via TRICARE as medically necessary & remove $ cap.

1 in 88 active duty military dependents has autism. Less than 10% are receiving proven therapies such as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).

TRICARE military insurance segregates ABA into Extended Care Health Option (ECHO) which itself is secondary to discriminatory enrollment in Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP).

We ask President Obama to direct the DoD & TRICARE to place ABA therapies within TRICARE standard care as medically necessary, removing the arbitrary dollar cap and making therapies accessible to dependents of retirees.

Our brave men and women of all branches of service deserve to have access to the care their children with autism require; regardless of whether they are active duty, have retired from decades of service, or are medically retired due to injury or disease.
