ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in New Jersey

New Jersey is one of the strongest states for autism insurance coverage. The state's autism insurance mandate requires many state-regulated health plans to cover medically necessary ABA therapy. Additionally, New Jersey's Medicaid program, NJ FamilyCare, covers ABA for eligible children. This means most Sussex families can access therapy without paying out of pocket.

When you use our free matching service, we help you find providers who are in-network with your specific plan or who accept NJ FamilyCare.
