Delay from Screening to Diagnosis in Autism Spectrum Disorder: Results from a Large National Health Research Network.

ABSTRACT: To examine delay from developmental screening to autism diagnosis, we used real-world health care data from a national research network to estimate the time between these events. We found an average delay of longer than 2 years from first screening to diagnosis, with no significant differences observed by sex, race, or ethnicity.
