ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Massachusetts

Massachusetts has strong protections for autism therapy. Private health plans regulated by the state are required to cover medically necessary ABA for children under 21 thanks to the Massachusetts Autism Insurance Mandate. This means your insurance plan may cover ABA with little to no out-of-pocket cost. For families with MassHealth (Massachusetts' Medicaid program), ABA therapy is also covered for eligible children and adults.

ABA Therapy Now works with families to find providers that accept your insurance or MassHealth. When you fill out our free form, we consider your coverage so we can match you with vetted BCBA-led providers who are in-network with your plan. We help cut through the confusion about benefits and connect you to care.
