In France, national guidelines about practices recommends early and specific interventions but care pathway are not well described for ASD children. The national health insurance information system record demographic data, medical condition, and reimbursed drug over 98% of the French population. In addition, the ELENA cohort is a large cohort of children with ASD followed for 6 years. Data collected include clinical characteristics of children (IQ, severity of ASD...) and parents (educational level, professional status...).
The first objective of this project is to identify patterns of care trajectories using data from ELENA cohort matched to data from national health insurance information system. Secondary objectives are to examine the links between patterns of care trajectories and clinical characteristics, social environment of autistic children.
