Progress ABA: Behavioral Consulting and Therapy Services, LLC
VerifiedOur Goal is to provide highly effective treatment for children with autism and their parents by following a method scientifically proven to bring clear results. The method we use is Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) based on extensive clinical peer reviewed research. We service families with children and adolescents on the autism spectrum 18 months to 18 years. Therapy addresses a variety of areas including language, cognitive, social, self-help (potty training, dressing, grooming, eating), gross motor & fine motor skills, play skills, and behavioral issues. Behavioral consultation includes skill assessment, functional behavioral assessment, treatment planning, parent training, and creating a behavior intervention plan (BIP). We are locally owned with a heavy emphasis on in family involvement, flexibility, intervening in natural environments (home, schools, daycares, and other community locations), and extensive Registered Behavior Technicians (RBT) training. We provide individualized treatment with hours recommended based on thorough assessment (4-40 hours a week depending on level of need). Our goal is for the child/adolescent to become more independent, develop healthy relationships, and eventually fade services. Our Behavior Analysts provide in-person supervision so that we can give RBT's direct support and adjust plans as needed. We provide parent training to help families work with their own children.

Understanding Insurance Coverage for ABA Therapy in Marietta
Georgia's autism coverage law, O.C.G.A. 33-24-59.10, was strengthened by Ava's Law in 2015 and expanded again in 2018. It requires state-regulated health insurance policies and HMO contracts, including the State Health Benefit Plan, to cover autism for covered individuals age 20 and under. Plans must cover diagnostic assessments by a licensed physician or psychologist and medically necessary applied behavior analysis, which a nationally board certified behavior analyst must provide or supervise. Plans may not limit the number of visits but may cap ABA at $35,000 per year, and payments for care unrelated to autism do not count toward that cap. A licensed physician or psychologist may be asked to confirm ongoing medical necessity at least once a year. The law does not apply to plans offered by employers with 10 or fewer employees, exchange plans do not have to cover benefits beyond the federal essential health benefits, and self-funded employer plans follow federal ERISA rules instead. Georgia Medicaid covers Adaptive Behavior Services, its name for ABA, for members under 21 with a documented autism diagnosis from a licensed physician or psychologist, including children in Georgia Families plans and the Katie Beckett program. No NOW or COMP waiver is needed. Prior authorization is required for all services, with the assessment and the treatment plan authorized separately. Families seeking additional support may find valuable resources through Georgia's special needs resource directory.
Georgia Autism Support Programs and Regulations
Babies Can't Wait, run by the Georgia Department of Public Health, is Georgia's early intervention program under Part C of IDEA. It serves children from birth to the third birthday, regardless of income, who have a diagnosed condition likely to cause delay or a confirmed developmental delay. Anyone can refer a child by sending the state's Child Health Referral Form to the local referral contact for the county where the family lives, or by phone, email, fax, letter or in person. Evaluation and service coordination are free; other services use a sliding fee scale based on ability to pay, and Medicaid and private insurance are billed with the family's permission. After the third birthday, the local school system handles Child Find and special education evaluation. For longer term support, the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities operates the NOW and COMP Medicaid waivers for people with an intellectual disability or a closely related developmental disability, such as autism, that substantially limits functioning. Applicants who appear eligible go on a planning list, and funding goes to those with the highest need rather than by time on the list. When exploring specialized educational programs to complement ABA therapy, Marietta families have access to a comprehensive network of support services.
Selecting the right ABA therapy provider in Marietta is an important decision that can significantly impact your child's progress. The 36 therapy providers serving the Marietta area each bring unique strengths, from specialized early intervention programs to school-based services and intensive behavioral support.
