Episode #70: Legal Issues PANS/PANDAS families can face in the medical system with Beth Maloney

1 hour 15 minutes

Beth Maloney has graciously offered to come and sit down with Dr. Bahr and Jody to discuss a very delicate topic that is an unfortunate reality for many PANS/PANDAS families. Let's talk about legal issues and medical child abuse/kidnapping.

We cover:

Beth recounts how PANS/PANDAS showed up in her and her son's life

The pivotal moments that led Beth on a journey to educate, advocate, and give back to this community & how each of her books were born

Dr. Bahr shares some shocking statistics surrounding child investigations

Beth explains how quickly accusations of medical child abuse can escalate (especially with medically complex children)

What a "child abuse pediatrician" is, what to be aware of, and how to possibly find out if your hospital has one

Beth talks about the child abuse registry... can you end up on it if you've been accused of neglect or abuse?? Can you appeal?

What if I need to take my child to the ER? How can I protect myself? What do I say or don't say?

How homeschooling/homebound learning is often perceived as a red flag to a child abuse pediatrician

Munchausen by proxy vs. medical child abuse.. are these the same thing? and the best things to do if you think a doctor is suspecting you of wrong-doing

An explanation of medical neglect

Tips on navigating a divorce when the parents disagree on health/medical-related decisions
