Health plan networks are a key factor in determining whether patients can get the care they need at the time they need it, and network adequacy ratings determine whether a network has the appropriate number of providers to offer sufficient access and options to covered services. For autism and IDD care, early intervention and proper access to care services is a huge driver of demonstrated improvement across almost all performance areas, making network adequacy paramount to provider, payor, and patient success. 

“CASP is uniquely positioned to assess and improve standards of practice in the autism and IDD care industry, and CentralReach is dedicated to providing them with the best research and most extensive data points available in the industry to help put autism treatment providers themselves in the driver seat of those standards"

- Chris Sullens, Chief Executive Officer of CentralReach

Knowledge sharing within the industry is paramount to ensure that we continue to make a true impact on the autism and IDD care community, ultimately ensuring individuals with autism – and those who serve them – are well supported throughout the care journey to achieve better outcomes overall.”
