What Does ABA Therapy Cost?

The cost of ABA therapy varies by family based on insurance coverage, your plan’s deductible and copay structure, and the number of therapy hours your child needs. For families with insurance, out-of-pocket costs are often limited to standard copays. For costs not covered by insurance, we offer internal payment plans and CareCredit® financing.

What that means for your family: for many children, the cost of ABA therapy is covered in full or with standard copays and deductibles — the same way you’d pay for any other specialist visit.

Factors That Can Affect the Cost of ABA Therapy

A few things that affect what you’ll pay:

Your insurance plan and what it covers for ABA therapy. Your deductible, copay, and out-of-pocket maximum. The number of weekly therapy hours in your child’s individualized plan. Whether you’re paying for an evaluation, ongoing ABA therapy, or both.

What This Means for Your Family

We understand that cost questions can feel overwhelming – especially when you’re focused on getting your child the support they need. That’s why our team takes the time to review your individual situation and explain what costs may look like before you move forward.

If insurance does not cover the full cost of care, we’ll help you explore flexible payment options. These may include our internal payment plans or optional external resources such as CareCredit®, giving families additional flexibility and peace of mind.

None of this needs to be figured out before you call. Our billing team will walk you through your specific situation – including any costs you can expect – before you commit to anything.

When insurance doesn’t cover everything
