Does Carelon Cover ABA Therapy?
Understanding Your Carelon Coverage for ABA Therapy
Carelon provides ABA therapy benefits under employer-sponsored health plans, Medicaid programs, and private insurance policies.
However, coverage details can vary based on:
Your specific Carelon plan (Medicaid, private, employer-sponsored)
State regulations governing autism therapy coverage
Medical necessity requirements (an autism diagnosis is typically required)
If you’re unsure about your child’s eligibility, Move Up ABA offers a free insurance verification to confirm your coverage and explain the next steps.
