ABA therapy can cost anywhere from $120 to $200 per hour out of pocket, depending on your location, provider, and the intensity of care. For a child receiving 10 to 40 hours per week, that can quickly add up to thousands of dollars per month.
However, many families don’t end up paying the full cost. In New Jersey, most major insurance plans, including Medicaid, cover ABA therapy for children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Coverage may vary by provider, so it’s important to verify your benefits.
Some providers also offer flexible payment plans, sliding scale fees, or financial assistance options to make therapy more accessible. At True Progress Therapy, we help families navigate insurance and minimize out-of-pocket costs whenever possible.
