Gov. Ed Rendell has signed a bill that advocates for people with autism say will make the state a national leader in helping children with autism.
Rendell signed the bill Wednesday at The Vista School in Hershey, which serves children with autism. After much wrangling during the past week, a bill finally passed both the state House and Senate.
It requires health insurers to pay up to $36,000 per year toward medically necessary treatments of autism.
