Better Outcomes For Everyone Touched by Autism
Autism spectrum disability currently affects 1 in 44 children in the U.S.
Although pediatricians have become proficient at identifying autism, they are still often challenged with finding trusted clinical partners that can provide their patients with a full range of therapy services that lead to evidence-based, measurable outcomes.
Enter Caravel Autism Health.
“At Caravel,” explains CEO Mike Miller, “we want to ensure that parents and pediatricians can find quality providers that help children with autism reach their greatest potential. We have the methodology, tools, and clinical experts that can truly change the lives of children and their families–and the numbers to back it up.” Pediatricians are taking note.
Data Science Driving Better Outcomes
One of the clear reasons pediatricians are increasingly recommending Caravel to families is because of the company’s research-based, data-driven therapy programs, led by its own proprietary “outcomes platform” called PathTap™. Using the PathTap™ application, Caravel’s clinicians log and track individual client progress in real-time. That data is collected cumulatively across all Caravel patients and analyzed to identify ways to fine tune each individual child’s therapy to reach the best outcomes. Results from using the PathTap™ platform have been nothing short of stunning.
Since implementing the technology in 2022, Caravel has demonstrated significant growth in clinical outcomes, with an increase of 34% on targeted clinical quality components for its clients.
Ready for School
One of the key outcomes pediatricians and parents seek for a child with autism is school readiness. Caravel’s Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy offers learning through play, combining both individual and group activities to build attention, focus, and memory skills, while also encouraging the growth of friendship skills. By providing structure around a classroom environment, Caravel’s methods can help children with autism effectively prepare for school. And research shows that the earlier a child starts with therapy, the better the outcomes.
Over 47% of children who have early intensive ABA therapy will start full-day school needing no additional services.
Importantly, Caravel doesn’t age out children after they start school. If a family commits to early intervention, Caravel commits to providing after school services if clinically needed.
An Important Component of the Physician’s Care Continuum
Another reason why pediatricians have embraced Caravel’s approach to autism therapy is its commitment to continual collaboration. Caravel regularly provides physicians with a customized, one-page patient update in an easy-to-read format. The company’s clinicians carefully document environmental and behavior changes that may be due to, or contributing to, medical concerns. By accompanying families to doctor’s appointments and sharing their valuable data, the clinical team is able to ensure better health outcomes.
Success Pediatricians Can Count On
Beyond the demonstrable progress exhibited by their patients as a result of Caravel’s autism care, physicians continue to recommend Caravel to families because, quite simply, families are positive about Caravel. In a recent survey, 95% of families report being satisfied with the quality of treatment their children have received from Caravel.
“Our goal is to lead the field to a better way of providing autism care,” says CEO Mike Miller. “Earning the trust of families and physicians and doing everything we can to deliver better therapy and better outcomes is what drives us every day.”
