We will confirm your insurance benefits with providers before matching. If you have Medical Assistance or a private plan, your child may be able to access ABA therapy at little or no cost. Contact us to learn more about your specific coverage.

Center-based ABA provides a structured setting with peer interaction and specialized equipment.

What to look for in an ABA provider

When choosing an ABA provider in Dauphin County, look for Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) who supervise care. Providers should conduct a detailed assessment before starting and offer personalized treatment plans. Ask about their experience with your child's age group and specific needs, and check that they accept your insurance.

Also consider the provider's approach to parent training-good providers will involve you in the process so skills generalize at home. Our matching service only connects you with vetted, BCBA-led providers to give you peace of mind.
