Does my child need a formal diagnosis to receive ABA Therapy?
While children are not required to have a formal Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis to receive ABA therapy services, a diagnosis is required for services to be covered by all insurance plans.
If you are just getting started, and have concerns that your child might have Autism Spectrum Disorder, the first step is to talk to your child’s pediatrician. They can help connect you with resources to schedule an assessment. From that point, if your child receives a formal autism diagnosis, your insurance plan is likely to cover ABA therapy services.
