ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Michigan

Michigan law requires many private insurance plans to cover ABA therapy for autism, thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate (Public Act 140 of 2012). This means your plan may cover diagnostic evaluations, treatment, and related services. We recommend checking your specific policy for details.

Michigan's Medicaid program, including the Healthy Michigan Plan, also covers ABA therapy for eligible children and adults. Our network includes providers who accept Medicaid and most major insurance plans. When you use our free matching service, we will confirm coverage options with the providers we recommend.
