Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Lighthouse Kids Centers for Autism - Knoxville
Where does therapy take place?
Sessions are offered in the center, in your home, and at school or in the community. The right mix depends on your child's goals and your family's schedule, and it is something to talk through at intake.
What insurance is accepted?
Accepted plans include Aetna, Ambetter, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Blue Care, Cigna, and Humana. TennCare and Tennessee Medicaid plans are accepted. Coverage varies by plan, so benefits are verified before services start and you will know your expected cost up front.
What ages do you work with?
Services start in the toddler years and continue through the preschool and school-age years. Earlier is generally better, but it is not too late to start if your child is already in school.
Do we need a diagnosis before we start?
Most insurance plans require an autism diagnosis and a referral for ABA before they will authorize services. If you do not have one yet, call anyway and the team can point you toward evaluation options in the area.
How do we get started?
The first step is a phone call or an inquiry through this page. From there the team checks your insurance benefits, schedules an assessment, and builds a plan with you before therapy hours begin.
What areas do you serve?
Families come from across Knoxville and the surrounding East Tennessee communities.
