ABA Coverage in Colorado

Colorado requires most private health insurance plans to cover ABA therapy for autism, thanks to state mandates. This includes plans purchased through Connect for Health Colorado and many employer-sponsored plans. Coverage typically includes assessment, direct therapy, and parent training, though specific benefits vary by plan.

For families without private insurance, Colorado's Medicaid program (Health First Colorado) covers ABA therapy for eligible children under the age of 21. Early Intervention services through the state's Early Intervention Colorado program may also provide ABA-related supports.
