ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Ohio
ABA therapy is widely covered by both private insurance and government programs in Ohio. The state's autism insurance mandate (Ohio Revised Code 3923.60) requires many private health plans to cover medically necessary ABA for individuals diagnosed with autism up to age 21. In addition, Ohio Medicaid - including the Ohio Department of Medicaid's managed care plans - covers ABA therapy for eligible children and adolescents.
That way, you know upfront what your out-of-pocket costs will be before committing to any program.
