ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in New York

New York State requires most health insurance plans to cover medically necessary ABA therapy for children under 21 diagnosed with autism, thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate (Insurance Law § 3221 and § 4303). This means many Lackawanna families can use their private insurance to help cover the cost of ABA. Additionally, New York's Medicaid program covers ABA therapy for eligible children, including those enrolled in the state's Early Intervention Program for children under 3.

Trusted ABA Therapy can help you verify your specific insurance benefits or Medicaid coverage. We work with providers who accept a wide range of plans, including NY Medicaid, so you can focus on your child's progress without worrying about financial barriers.
