Autism Behavioral Solutions currently accepts United, BlueCross BlueShield, Medicaid (Anthem, United and BlueCross BlueShield) as well as private pay. Most insurance covers ABA therapy however ABA services must be deemed medically necessary by your physician and insurance provider in order to be eligible for coverage.

Medical necessity for ABA services is determined through an assessment of communicative, behavioral, social and self-care deficits and the impact of these deficits on the quality of life for the individual and their families. Educational deficits do not qualify as a medical necessity under current insurance regulations.

Most insurance plans are required by law to cover all or part of Applied Behavior Analysis services for children diagnosed with Autism.
