No waitlistWhat in-home ABA therapy is
In-home ABA therapy is applied behavior analysis that happens in your own house. A Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) assesses your child, sets the goals and checks the data. A Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) comes for the sessions and teaches during the moments your family already has: breakfast, getting shoes on, a fight over the tablet. Skills learned there do not have to be moved from a clinic to home, because they started at home.

In-Home ABA Therapy in Draper: local things to know
Utah Medicaid needs an autism diagnosis
Utah Medicaid offers autism-related services, ABA included, to eligible members who have an autism diagnosis, with no age cutoff on the state’s page. Get the diagnostic report in hand before you ask us to start the approval.
Private plans: no hour cap on most state-regulated plans

Ask HR whether your plan is self-funded
The autism coverage rule sits in Utah’s insurance code, which governs plans sold by insurers. Many large employers pay claims themselves instead, and those plans follow federal rules. Your benefits booklet or HR office can tell you which kind you have.
