How Referrals Work

A clear starting point for every family

The details below help our clinical team understand a child’s current needs before we ever pick up the phone so that the first conversation is informed, not generic. Fields marked as specify-your-own give you room to add context our checkboxes can’t capture.
Once submitted, a member of our intake team reviews the referral, verifies insurance where applicable, and reaches out to schedule next steps, typically a CMDE evaluation if one isn’t already on file.

Who Can Refer

Who Can Submit an EIDBI Referral?

This form works for anyone starting the process, not just parents.
Parents and caregivers, referring their own child
Pediatricians, as part of a pediatrician autism referral after a developmental concern comes up in a well-child visit
School staff, referring a student they suspect may benefit from evaluation
Case managers submitting a case manager EIDBI referral on behalf of a family already receiving other county or state services, essentially helping refer a child for EIDBI who may already be known to the county
Whichever category you fall into, the same form and the same review process apply regardless of who submits it.
Eligibility

Who Is EIDBI Referral For?

EIDBI referrals are for children who may benefit from Early Intensive Developmental and Behavioral Intervention services, including children with developmental concerns or autism-related support needs.
Age and eligibility: EIDBI services are subject to applicable age, medical-necessity, and program eligibility requirements. Our team can help determine the appropriate next steps based on the information provided in the referral.
Service area: Elite Services Center serves families in Anoka, Hennepin, Ramsey, Washington, Scott, Dakota, and Carver counties from its Minneapolis office.
CMDE: A Comprehensive Multidisciplinary Evaluation (CMDE) may be needed to determine eligibility for EIDBI services. If a child already has a current, valid CMDE, our team can review the information and explain the next step in the treatment-planning process.
If you’re unsure whether a child is an appropriate fit, you can still contact our team before submitting the referral.

After You Submit

What happens next

Every referral is reviewed personally by our clinical intake team, not sorted automatically by a system.
01

Review

Our intake team reviews the referral details, including diagnosis, schedule needs, and insurance information.
02

Contact

We reach out by phone or email within one to two business days to introduce ourselves and ask any follow-up questions.
03

Verify

Where applicable, we verify insurance benefits so your family has a clear picture of coverage before anything is scheduled.
04

Schedule

If your child needs a CMDE, our team helps schedule the evaluation. If a current, valid CMDE is already on file, we can typically move forward with the next step in the treatment-planning process.

Referring on behalf of a family, not submitting for your own child? Include your name and role in the “Additional Notes” field so our intake team knows who to loop in alongside the parent.
