Funding

Many states now have mandated health insurance coverage for ABA services for children with autism. However, these laws apply to certain insurance companies. Self-funded insurance companies do not have to abide by these laws. These laws only pertain to children with autism and do not include ABA services for children with other types of disabilities. (See Richard Saffran’s webpage on Autism: http://rsaffran.tripod.com/aba.html. It has a lot of very helpful information.)
