Optimizing Outcomes - Integrated...

Mark Mintz

What if neurodiverse individuals, including those dealing with autism, could find an integrated approach — in one place — that actually worked? What if they didn’t have to embark on a costly Diagnosis Odyssey, only to end up frustrated and no closer to a solution than when they started? Pediatric neurologist Mark Mintz, MD will show you that it doesn’t have to be this way — because he has found a new path that has been transforming health care and producing better outcomes for his patients. Wrong and inefficient treatment, over-reliance of medications, Byzantine healthcare bureaucracies and antiquated reimbursement systems disconnected from the actual value of care are affecting outcomes. Dr. Mintz will show you the problems with the system, some of which you know about, some of which may surprise you. He will take you to the bottom line and prove why cheaper doesn’t mean less expensive, and show you how a multi-disciplinary approach, inviting many perspectives to each case, actually streamline care and serves patients better. Working with the vast knowledge of his team consisting of professionals who specialize in both the medical and behavior side of diagnosis and treatment, he will show you how they were able to create an integrated system, stop the Diagnosis Odyssey in its tracks and bring real help to children, adults and their families. Join Dr. Mintz on this journey through the healthcare “system” and meet the patients it has ill-served , only to be rescued by him and his team of caregivers. His head-and-heart approach will leave parents of children with autism and other neurological conditions realizing that, no matter their previous experiences, there is still hope.
