Pathways to care for autistic children, with and without associated epilepsy, across Europe.

This talk will summarise the results from an autism care pathway analysis in Europe, which was part of a Value of Treatment (VoT) project. The care pathway of autistic children (with and without epilepsy) was analysed from the perspectives of carers, the autism community and professionals to identify service disparities. These are things that prevent autistic families from receiving information, support, timely screening/diagnosis of autism and associated epilepsy, intervention/follow-up support, effective treatment of epilepsy and the underlying causes of these gaps. Lastly, the group will discuss their proposed recommendations to improve this pathway.
