Demand Washington Health Insurers Cover Treatment for PANDAS/PANS Children

The Issue

I am a voting constituent in the State of Washington and I also care about the health of Washington children with PANDAS/PANS.  It is time for the State of Washington to join the 5 other states (Illinois, Delaware, Arkansas, New Hampshire and Minnesota) who have passed legislation ensuring that the CHILDREN IN THEIR STATE SUFFERING FROM PANDAS/PANS HAVE ACESS TO THE TREATMENT INDICATED.  1 in 200 children will be affected by PANDAS/PANS which is over 8,290 children in Washington alone.  

I sign this petition to indicate my support that all Washington children should be cared for by ensuring pay parity of treatment indicated for PANDAS/PANS and not just those that can afford it.  
I sign because these children and their families deserve healing.  
I sign because HEALTH INSURERS are DENYING TREATMENT INDICATED and these children are delaying care that could alleviate their suffering.  
I sign because I care about Washington children and they have a RIGHT to access this care.  
I sign and URGE my local legislators to support legislation that will ensure these children can get the healthcare they need.
