Welcome to Epic Minds Therapy! We understand that navigating insurance coverage for ABA therapy can be overwhelming, but we’re here to make the process easier for you.
If you’re a parent in North Carolina seeking ABA therapy for your child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), you may be eligible for coverage through Vaya Health.
Below, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about Vaya Health’s coverage for ABA therapy, how to access services, and how Epic Minds Therapy can help you every step of the way.
Does Vaya Health Cover ABA Therapy?
Yes! Vaya Health provides coverage for ABA therapy for children diagnosed with ASD. Through Vaya Health’s Medicaid and Tailored Plans, families in North Carolina can access ABA therapy to support their child’s development.
ABA therapy is a proven, evidence-based treatment that focuses on improving key skills such as communication, social interaction, and daily living.
What ABA Therapy Services Are Covered?
Vaya Health covers a range of essential ABA therapy services to help your child thrive, including:
Assessment and Diagnosis
Your child will first undergo a comprehensive assessment to determine the need for ABA therapy. This evaluation is a key step in creating an effective treatment plan.
Individualized Treatment Plan
Based on the assessment, your child will receive a personalized treatment plan that targets specific skills and behaviors. These plans are developed by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) to ensure the most effective strategies are in place.
Therapy Sessions
ABA therapy is delivered through one-on-one sessions with Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), who are supervised by BCBAs. These sessions focus on developing communication, social, and adaptive skills.
Parent Training and Support
Vaya Health’s coverage also includes parent training programs to help you support your child’s progress at home. We’ll guide you through strategies to reinforce therapy goals and promote positive behavior.
How to Access ABA Therapy with Vaya Health
Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to accessing ABA therapy through Vaya Health:
Get a Diagnosis
Your child must have a formal diagnosis of autism from a licensed healthcare provider.
Check Your Insurance Coverage
Contact Vaya Health to confirm your insurance benefits and the specific coverage for ABA therapy. It’s important to know what’s included in your plan and if there are any out-of-pocket costs.
Request Pre-Authorization

To minimize costs, it’s recommended to select an in-network provider. Epic Minds Therapy is an in-network provider with Vaya Health, and we’ll help you find the right fit for your child.
