What’s Covered Under Aetna for ABA Therapy

Comprehensive Behavioral Assessments
We confirm your benefits before therapy starts, so you’ll know exactly what’s covered and what to expect.

One-on-one therapy in the comfort of your home where your child feels most at ease. This is where ABA therapy happens most effectively, addressing communication, behavior, and life skills.

School-Based Support
Therapy that extends into your child’s school environment, ensuring the skills they learn at home carry over into the classroom and social settings.

Parent Training & Support
We equip you with the knowledge and skills to continue reinforcing therapy at home, ensuring your child’s progress is consistent and long-lasting.

Ongoing Monitoring & Adjustments
Regular tracking of your child’s progress with ongoing adjustments to the therapy plan to ensure continuous improvement.

What Makes Aetna's ABA Coverage Stand Out

Broad Network of Providers

Aetna has a large network of ABA therapy providers, ensuring that your child receives care from experienced professionals in your area. This makes it easier to access quality therapy close to home.

In-Home and School-Based Support

Aetna provides coverage for both in-home and school-based ABA therapy, offering flexibility and ensuring that your child’s therapy continues seamlessly in different environments.

Early Intervention Focus

Aetna prioritizes early intervention, which can significantly improve long-term outcomes for children with autism. Their coverage makes ABA therapy more accessible during the critical early years.

Parent Training and Support

Aetna goes beyond covering therapy. It also includes parent training as part of their therapy services, ensuring that you’re equipped to reinforce therapeutic strategies at home for consistent progress.
