Accepted Tests for Occupational Therapy
Tests used must be norm-referenced, standardized, age
				appropriate and specific to the suspected area(s) of deficit. The following
				list of tests is not all-inclusive. When using a test that is not listed below,
				the provider must include an explanation and justification in the evaluation
				report to support the use of the chosen test. The
Mental Measurement
				Yearbook (MMY)
is the standard reference for determining the
				reliability and validity of the test(s) administered in an evaluation.
				Providers should refer to the MMY for additional information regarding specific
				tests. These definitions are applied to the lists of accepted tests:
* STANDARDIZED: Tests that are used to determine the presence
				or absence of deficits; any diagnostic tool or procedure that has a
				standardized administration and scoring process and compares results to an
				appropriate normative sample.
* SUPPLEMENTAL: Tests and tools that are used to further
				document deficits and support standardized results; any non-diagnostic tool
				that is a screening or is criterion-referenced, descriptive in design, a
				structured probe or an accepted clinical assessment procedure. Supplemental
				tests may not replace standardized tests.
* CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: Clinical observations have a
				supplemental role in the evaluation process and should always be included. They
				are especially important when standard scores do not accurately reflect a
				child's deficits in order to qualify the child for therapy. A detailed
				narrative or description of a child's limitations and how they affect
				functional performance may constitute the primary justification of medical
				necessity when a standardized evaluation is inappropriate (see Section
				214.400, part D, paragraph
				8).
