Missouri Medicaid and ABA Therapy
Questions about coverage are common. Our team can help explain the next steps for families exploring ABA services.
Coverage and authorization
ABA services may be subject to Missouri Medicaid eligibility, medical necessity, provider participation, service limitations, and prior authorization requirements. Eligibility and covered services must be verified for each individual.
The Behavior Consultants works with Missouri Medicaid fee-for-service. Contact our office to confirm current participation and requirements before relying on coverage.
What to ask before beginning
Ask about referral documentation, diagnostic or assessment records, authorization, covered services, expected family participation, and current scheduling availability.
Call 573-841-8837 to discuss general intake steps; do not send private medical records by ordinary email.
