Does Medicaid Cover ABA Therapy?

Yes. ABA therapy is a covered service under Virginia Medicaid for children with an autism diagnosis. Medicaid recognizes ABA therapy as medically necessary, which means eligible families can access BCBA-supervised therapy without paying out of pocket.


Coverage includes in-home ABA therapy, clinic-based ABA therapy, behavior assessments, and parent training — the same services we provide to families with commercial insurance.
