ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Arizona

ABA therapy is widely covered by insurance plans in Arizona, including private insurance through employer plans and marketplace policies. Arizona's Medicaid program, known as AHCCCS (Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System), also covers ABA therapy for eligible children under the age of 21 when deemed medically necessary. This includes coverage through the Arizona Long-Term Care System (ALTCS) for children with significant needs.

Additionally, Arizona's autism insurance mandate (A.R.S. 20-826 for large group plans) requires many private insurers to provide coverage for autism-related treatments, including ABA. Our team can help you verify your specific plan's benefits and connect you with providers who accept your insurance or AHCCCS.
