ECHO Autism for primary care providers bridges the care gap between primary care, behavioral health, and community health care specialists by sharing best practices as they care and support individuals with autism and their families regardless of geographic location. The participants will present cases specific to children diagnosed with autism while learning more about common medical concerns and comorbid conditions in children with autism. Participants will have a chance to discuss cases with experts and colleagues to learn about evidence based care. A brief didactic presented by an expert will accompany the case discussion.
