ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Pennsylvania

ABA therapy is widely covered by insurance in Pennsylvania, including through the state's Medicaid program, known as Medical Assistance (MA). Many private insurers also comply with Pennsylvania's autism insurance mandate, which requires coverage for medically necessary ABA services for children under 21. Our matching service verifies that each provider accepts your specific plan, so you don't have to worry about unexpected costs.

If your child is enrolled in Pennsylvania's Medical Assistance, we can connect you with providers who accept MA and are experienced in navigating its coverage. We also help families with private insurance, including plans through the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) or employer-based coverage. Our goal is to make the process as smooth and affordable as possible.
