In Maine, ABA therapy is often covered by private insurance thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate (Title 24-A § 2843), which requires many plans to cover medically necessary ABA. MaineCare (Maine's Medicaid program) also covers ABA for eligible children under 21. This means Newport families can often access services with little to no out-of-pocket cost.
