Overlap exists between the M-CHAT and PEDS pathways, because referrals were made according to PEDS pathway protocols in conjunction with M-CHAT results. M-CHAT Fail results are broken out independently for reporting purposes only.
“Other” included families who could not be reached after several attempts or whose records were missing data.
