Course Description

Navigating the complexities of managed health care funding for Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services in the context of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can be daunting. The landscape is often muddled with misinformation and misconceptions, propagated through various channels including social media and dubious training programs. To cut through the noise, we've convened a panel of leaders from an ABA service funder. They will demystify common authorization queries, forecast the evolution of ABA payment structures, and highlight resources and support systems.

What You'll Learn

  1. Describe resources for accessing medical necessity criteria (MNC), how MNC are created, and identify strategies for demonstrating MNC of services within applied behavior analysis (ABA) authorization requests.
  2. Describe to integrate clinically and ethically appropriate treatment suggestions within the ABA authorization request process.
  3. Describe information about payor views on outcome measurements and next steps towards value-based performance within the ABA space.
