ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Illinois

Additionally, Illinois Medicaid - administered by the Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) - covers ABA through programs like the Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver and the Children's Health Insurance Program. Medicaid coverage may include in-home and center-based ABA with a BCBA.
