ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Michigan

In Michigan, many insurance plans cover ABA therapy. The state's autism insurance mandate (Public Act 175 of 2012) requires certain private health plans to cover autism-related treatments, including ABA. Michigan's Medicaid program, through the Healthy Michigan Plan and MI Child, also covers ABA for eligible children under age 21 as part of the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit.

We work with families to find providers that accept your specific plan, whether private insurance, Michigan Medicaid, or a plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace. Our service is free and we help you navigate coverage options.

What to look for in an ABA provider

When choosing an ABA provider, focus on BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst) supervision and a low client-to-therapist ratio. Look for providers that use evidence-based, person-centered approaches and involve family in goal-setting. Ask about their experience with your child's specific needs - whether that's communication, social skills, or behavior challenges.
