How care works
How ABA therapy works in Georgia
Therapy is delivered in person by a Registered Behavior Technician, supervised by a BCBA. Telehealth is for the parts that work well on video: assessments, supervision and parent training.
At school
With the school's approval, your RBT works with your child in the classroom and coordinates with teachers on shared goals.
At our clinic
A structured space for practicing what is hard at home — waiting, transitions, group play — before generalizing it.
By telehealth
BCBA assessments, supervision and parent training by video. Therapy sessions themselves are always in person.

Insurance and Medicaid
Insurance for ABA therapy in Georgia
Georgia's autism insurance law
Georgia's autism law, known as Ava's Law (O.C.G.A. § 33-24-59.10), requires state-regulated health plans to cover autism diagnosis and ABA therapy, when medically necessary, for children and young adults 20 and under. The law allows ABA to be capped at $35,000 a year.
State insurance laws apply to fully insured plans. Many large employers self-fund their plans, and those are regulated federally and generally exempt from state mandates, so coverage depends on your specific plan. Benefits verification is how we find out.
Georgia Medicaid and PeachCare for Kids
Georgia Medicaid has covered ABA for members under 21 since January 1, 2018, with a documented autism diagnosis and prior authorization. Most children are enrolled through a Georgia Families care management organization: Amerigroup, CareSource or Peach State Health Plan.
The state is re-awarding those contracts, and the current three are extended through June 30, 2027. If your plan changes, we re-verify your benefits with the new one.

Early intervention
Babies Can't Wait and ABA
Babies Can't Wait is Georgia's early intervention program for children from birth to their third birthday, run by the Department of Public Health and open regardless of income. It can work alongside ABA: a child can receive early intervention services and ABA therapy at the same time.
Licensing
Who provides care in Georgia

Questions
ABA therapy in Georgia: common questions
Georgia's Ava's Law requires state-regulated plans to cover ABA for children 20 and under when it is medically necessary, and Georgia Medicaid covers it for members under 21. Self-funded employer plans can differ, so we confirm your plan's coverage during benefits verification.
At our clinic in Peachtree City, and in person at home and at school across 18 metro-Atlanta counties. Assessments, BCBA supervision and parent training can also be done by telehealth.
