In addition, specialists called for the need to include the injury in the list of health insurance at least during the golden stage, to help the people overcome this ordeal and contribute to the treatment of many cases, and parents called for increasing the number of government centers concerned with the rehabilitation of autistic patients, while the reality of the centers shows that there is that there isA shortage at the state level in some disciplines, the most important of which is a speech or communication specialist from citizens, as the presence of a non -citizen speech specialist does not bear fruit from the desired benefit, if the child is a recipient of rehabilitation treatment as a citizen.
