Understanding Insurance and Authorization
Insurance can feel like its own language. This guide explains, in plain terms, how coverage typically works for ABA therapy and how our team helps you along the way.
Coverage basics
ABA Prep accepts Maryland Medicaid and is in-network with CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield and CareFirst BlueChoice for eligible ABA services. Benefits, coverage, cost-sharing, and authorization requirements vary by plan, so we verify each family’s eligibility before services begin.
We don't guarantee approval for any specific plan — what we do promise is a clear, honest conversation about what your coverage looks like and what next steps make sense.
What our team helps with
Our family support team helps gather what's needed, submits documentation, tracks renewal dates, and keeps you posted along the way. If something changes with your plan, we'll flag it early.
Please share sensitive insurance details only through the secure channel we provide — not through this website or email.
Questions to ask
- Is my current plan one you accept?
- What information do you need from me to start a coverage check?
- How long do authorizations typically last?
- What should I do if my insurance changes mid-year?
