When it comes to Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), it can be difficult to sort out what’s best for your family. ABA therapy can improve communication skills, introduce productive habits, and reduce harmful behaviors. However, we advise you to watch out for providers who look to “cure” autism, as this isn’t the goal of quality ABA therapy. Our goal is to help people learn all that they can so they can live to their potential while embracing their unique, individual personality traits.

At HealthPRO Pediatrics Point Loma, we understand that the cost of ABA therapy can be a major question for families. However, you may be pleased to know that ABA therapy is often covered by insurance if your child has an autism diagnosis. Autism is the only diagnosis typically authorized by insurance for ABA services, due to the extensive research of its benefits. It is important to check with your specific insurance plan to ensure ABA is covered for your child and that the provider is in-network. To help your family understand more about ABA therapy costs and insurance coverage, we have compiled a complete guide.
