Needs Survey for Kentucky's "New" Autism Spectrum Disorder Waiver

Can you all give me input on the survey (below) regarding autism spectrum disorder needs in order to provide our membership with input to the planning committee for the waiver.

It would be good to solicit input from providers (therapists, home health agencies, etc.) and professionals (M.D.'s, Ph.D.'s, SLP's, OT's) in the form of letters or recommendations.
