Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) face challenges across many functional domains. A tool that gathers relevant clinical information before visits, emphasizing symptoms that are likely to change over development and inform clinical interventions, could improve health care quality, allowing for more patient-centered and efficient care. This study evaluated the clinical utility and preliminary psychometrics of the ASD Parent Report for Outcome Monitoring (ASD-PROM), a web-based measure assessing competence in core features of ASD, along with the breadth of concerns and comorbidities that frequently co-occur with ASD.
