ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Pennsylvania

In Pennsylvania, ABA therapy is covered under many commercial insurance plans thanks to the state's Autism Insurance Act (Act 62), which mandates coverage for medically necessary ABA for children diagnosed with autism. Pennsylvania's Medicaid program, known as Medical Assistance (MA), also covers ABA therapy for eligible children, as does the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP).

When you work with Trusted ABA Therapy, we connect you with providers who accept these forms of coverage. We can help you understand your benefits and find a provider in Dauphin County that takes your plan-at no cost to you.

In-home, center-based & telehealth ABA in Dauphin County

Dauphin County families have access to a variety of ABA service models. In-home therapy allows a BCBA or Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) to work with your child in your home, teaching skills in a natural environment. Center-based programs provide structured learning at a clinic, often with peer interaction and specialized materials.

Telehealth ABA is also available, connecting you with a BCBA virtually for parent training, supervision, and direct therapy. Many providers in the Harrisburg area offer flexible options to meet your family's needs. Trusted ABA Therapy can help you explore which setting is best for your child.

What to look for in an ABA provider

When choosing an ABA provider in Dauphin County, look for a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) who leads the team and designs individualized treatment plans. Ask about the percentage of therapist hours that are directly supervised by a BCBA. Also inquire about parent training and family involvement-research shows these improve outcomes.

Ensure the provider uses data-driven methods and regularly adjusts goals as your child progresses. A good provider will also coordinate with your child's school, speech therapist, or other professionals. Trusted ABA Therapy screens all providers to ensure they meet high standards.
