Personalized support for members with autism

Optum is breaking barriers in supporting members and families who are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Innovative solutions deliver positive outcomes

Optum is working to address barriers and support people with autism. Find out how our focused approach can help advance all aspects of care delivery.
