I feel that what the Part C Early Intervention Services rendered to the areas young children is a positive endeavor to help them secure a better future.  Early Intervention not only identifies children with special needs and coordinates with local professionals to provide services to those children, it also helps the parents and caregivers with resources and tools to enable them to reinforce the services their children receive.

The changes made to the Medicaid/Part C Early Intervention payment system have greatly improved how Medicaid pays services for these patients.  Patients are qualified and registered through Early Intervention Services.  EI Certified Providers need only to document services rendered and bill using the new Medicaid EI Codes.  It would be wonderful if the same type of system could be developed for patients with commercial insurance.

The Early Intervention Part C Services is an excellent program working to improve the lives of the children they provide services to as well as their families and communities.
