About Applied Behavior Analysis

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is an individualized form of behavioral therapy. All ABA services require prior approval.

ABA services are commonly prescribed for individuals diagnosed with autism. ABA has been proven to help individuals diagnosed with autism gain new skills and reduce behaviors that negatively impact quality of life.

Most eligibility can be verified online by signing in to the secure provider portal or by calling the Behavioral Health number on the back of the member's ID card.
