For therapy services, if your child has a Medicaid health plan, you can only be referred to us by your local Community Mental Health agency. See our location pages for a link to your local agency. You may qualify for up to 40 hours of therapy each week at no cost to your family.

For therapy services, Ripple Effects Autism Learning Center is currently working toward accepting private insurance from many of the popular companies such as Blue Cross Blue Shield/Blue Care Network and Priority Health. Your health plan must include the Autism Benefit in order to have coverage. Also, your insurance company may require your child's ASD diagnosis to come from an Approved Autism Evaluation Center. Consult your insurance company for more information on diagnostic requirements, in-network providers, and co-pays.
