ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Pennsylvania

In Pennsylvania, ABA therapy is often covered by private health insurance thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate (Act 62), which requires many plans to cover medically necessary ABA. Pennsylvania's Medicaid program, known as Medical Assistance, also covers ABA therapy for eligible children. Many providers we work with accept both commercial insurance and Medical Assistance.

If you are unsure about your coverage, our matching process can help you identify providers who accept your insurance plan. We also assist families in navigating Pennsylvania's Early Intervention (EI) program for children under three, which may include ABA services at no cost to families.
