ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Massachusetts

Massachusetts offers strong coverage for ABA therapy through both private insurance and MassHealth, the state's Medicaid program. The Massachusetts autism insurance mandate requires many commercial plans to cover medically necessary ABA for members under 21, so most New Bedford families have coverage options.
