ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Louisiana

Louisiana Medicaid covers ABA therapy for children under 21 through the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit. Additionally, Louisiana's autism insurance mandate requires many state-regulated health plans to cover ABA for autism spectrum disorder. This means most Baton Rouge families can use their insurance to help pay for therapy.

If your child is under three, Louisiana's EarlySteps early intervention program may also provide ABA services. Our team can help you understand your coverage options and match you with providers who accept your plan-including Louisiana Medicaid, commercial insurance, and private pay arrangements.
