In-home, center-based & telehealth ABA in Cary
Cary families can choose from a variety of ABA settings to fit their child's needs and daily schedule. In-home therapy brings a BCBA and registered behavior technicians (RBTs) directly to your home, allowing skills to be taught in natural routines. Center-based programs offer structured environments with peer interaction, often in dedicated clinics around Cary and nearby Morrisville, Apex, and Raleigh.
Telehealth ABA is also available for many families in Cary, providing live coaching and parent training from a BCBA through secure video sessions. This option works well for families who prefer remote support or live in areas with limited in-person availability. Our team will help you find providers offering the setting that works best for your family.
ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in North Carolina
Most private health insurance plans in North Carolina cover ABA therapy thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate (Session Law 2015-249). This law requires many large group plans to cover medically necessary ABA for children diagnosed with autism. We help verify your specific plan's benefits, including deductibles, copays, and any session limits.
For families with NC Medicaid (including NC Medicaid Direct and managed care plans like AmeriHealth Caritas, WellCare, and Healthy Blue), ABA therapy is a covered benefit for eligible children. The NC Infant-Toddler Program also provides early intervention services for children under three, which may include ABA. Our matching service includes providers who accept Medicaid, so you can find care without worrying about upfront costs.
