Healthcare and your adopted Child

We are trying to add Elana to our insurance.  We like to do this before she gets home.  That helps get her set up with a doctor, so when can start scheduling appointments.  I would say this is important.  You want to get your child checked and start off their shots.  Even though they get some in China, there might be some needed for their records.  If you child is sick or gets sick from the trip, you want to get that checked out immediately.  Sometimes, the doctors might even question the age of your child and want to do a Bone age test.  Depending on your child's special need, you need to set up appointments with groups that can assist them.  In Florida, we have Lighthouse.  They assist children and adults with seeing issues.  They have helped with Mia and we hope to get their help with Elana.  Your doctor might want the child to go through Occupational Therapy and/or Speech Therapy.
