Neurobehavioral, neurophysiological, neuropsychological, and psychophysiological
testing and treatment

Reasonable
expenses related to periodic reevaluation of the care of an individual
covered under the plan who has incurred an acquired brain injury, has been unresponsive to
treatment, and becomes responsive to treatment at a later date, at which time the cognitive
rehabilitation services would be a covered benefit.
