ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Illinois

In Illinois, private health insurance plans are required to cover ABA therapy for autism under the state's autism insurance mandate (Public Act 95-1005). This law applies to most employer-sponsored and individual plans for children up to age 21, though coverage limits may apply. Illinois Medicaid (also known as the Medical Assistance program) covers ABA for eligible children through the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit.

Our matching team verifies your insurance benefits at no charge, including both private plans and Medicaid. We work with many providers who accept Illinois Medicaid and major insurers, so you can focus on your child's progress without worrying about coverage.
