One way to start this conversation is by bringing a MV-9D form with you to your next appointment and express your concerns about elopement and meltdowns in public.
Make sure reason code #2 is used by the physician on part D
(This form can be found down below or you can click the yellow highlighted link above)
Additionally, this form MUST be signed by a physician & notarized (Some physicians' offices have a in-house notary or bring it to your local UPS for notary services (be sure to call first))
By being proactive and communicating with your child's pediatrician, you can create a plan that prioritizes your child's safety and well-being while in public spaces. Remember, it's okay to ask for help and support, and your child's pediatrician is there to help you navigate any challenges that may arise.
