ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Massachusetts

Massachusetts has a strong autism insurance mandate (often referred to as the ARICA law) that requires many private health plans to cover ABA therapy for children diagnosed with autism. This means families in Malden can often access coverage through their employer-sponsored insurance or individual plans. Additionally, MassHealth (Massachusetts's Medicaid program) covers ABA therapy for eligible children, including those with autism spectrum disorder.

Our matching service helps you navigate these options. We'll ask about your insurance provider and connect you with ABA agencies that accept your plan. Many Malden-area providers are in-network with major insurers and MassHealth, so you can focus on your child's progress rather than paperwork.
