Who Pays for ABA Therapy?

Medicaid can also cover ABA therapy for eligible families, offering full or partial coverage depending on the state’s policies. Some military families may receive benefits through TRICARE, which includes ABA therapy for dependents with autism.

If insurance or Medicaid isn’t available, some families may pay out of pocket. Costs can range from $120 to $200 per hour, making financial planning essential. Fortunately, many providers, including Divine Steps ABA, work with families to explore payment options, including grants, scholarships, or sliding scale fees.
