Over 70 attendees were able to take advantage of a partnership event with Autism Alliance of Michigan, DTW Airport, Delta and TSA. For families living with autism, air travel is often an extremely difficult or impossible option. The entire experience, from the size of the airport, number of people, security protocols, noise, smells, and visual stimulation can easily over stimulate a person with autism. This event allowed families the opportunity to go through the preparation and on/off boarding experience, practice going through the security check, the jet bridge, and visit the airport terminal!

It is clear from the smiles in these photos that it was a successful day for all and will hopefully lead to some peace of mind for families when traveling in the future!
Stay tuned for details on the next On Board with Autism event. In the meantime, if you have any questions about traveling with autism or just autism in general, please contact our Navigator Specialists at 877.463.AAOM or Navigator@aaomi.org. Help. Hope. Answers. TODAY.

3.In-Network Providers. If you are considering changing health care insurers, or if your employer is making the choice for you, make sure all of your providers are in-network. Notify your providers of any changes to your insurance to avoid complications with reimbursement and authorizations.
4.Self-funded Plans. Check with your benefits manager to see if your company is self-funded. If it’s self-funded, check to see if they have an autism rider with any of their plans. If the company has no autism benefit, consider an individual or “child only” Affordable Care Act plan* through the marketplace.
Medical and behavioral health care insurance can be extremely confusing, the navigators and insurance specialist at AAOM are available to help you make sense of the paperwork or guide you in the right direction if employed by a self-funded company.
*Important Note: Open enrollment for an individual or child-only plan is November 1 – December 15, for plans starting January 1, 2017. If you need to purchase an individual or “child only” plan, this is the time period that this can be done.
