ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Pennsylvania

In Pennsylvania, ABA therapy is often covered by commercial insurance plans under the state's autism insurance mandate (Act 62), which requires private insurers to cover medically necessary autism treatments for children up to age 21. Pennsylvania's Medicaid program, known as Medical Assistance (MA), also covers ABA through the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit for eligible children up to age 21.

Trusted ABA Therapy works with families to understand their specific insurance benefits and connect them with providers who accept their plan, including MA and many private insurers. Our matching service can help you navigate coverage options for Delaware County.

What to look for in an ABA provider

When choosing an ABA provider in Delaware County, it's important to prioritize a family-centered approach and a BCBA-led team. Look for providers who offer personalized treatment plans, regular progress updates, and parent training as part of their program. Ask about their experience with children similar in age and needs to your child, and whether they use naturalistic, play-based teaching methods.

Also consider practical factors: location, hours, availability for sessions, and whether they accept your insurance or Medicaid. A strong provider will be transparent about their approach and willing to collaborate with other therapists or your child's school. Our free service helps you compare vetted providers who meet these criteria.

Getting started with ABA in Delaware County
