ABA Therapy Prior Authorization in Maryland

Before ABA therapy can begin, insurance requires prior authorization based on an assessment and treatment plan. ABA Prep manages the paperwork so families can focus on their child.

Documents you'll typically need

Insurance plans generally require proof of an autism spectrum diagnosis, a physician referral, and a completed ABA assessment before authorizing therapy hours.

  • Autism spectrum diagnostic evaluation
  • Physician referral or prescription
  • Insurance card and demographic information

How the process works with ABA Prep

We collect required documents during intake, complete the initial assessment, submit the treatment plan for authorization, and let you know as soon as hours are approved.
