The Cost of Autism study opened at the Peterborough City Care Centre on Monday. The study is being run nationally and is looking to determine the average professional time taken to assess a child for possible Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and the resulting financial cost to the NHS. The study is being led by Dr Venkat Reddy, Consultant Community Paediatrician, with support from the Windsor Research Unit.
