Specialized IBHS Program
Autism and Deaf/Hard of Hearing

Comprehensive Autism Evaluation, Testing and Diagnosis for Children and Adolescents ages 3 to 21.

In Pennsylvania, the provision of services may be covered and reimbursable either directly through the Department of Public Welfare (Medical Assistance) through a contract with either a medicaid behavioral health managed care organization or a commercial payor. We are contracted with Community Behavioral Health (CBH), Magellan and Community Care Behavioral Health (CCBH) which are Health Choices Managed Care Organizations.

In Pennsylvania, children who meet these coverage guidelines are eligible to receive services without regard to family income.

Pennsylvania participating commercial health insurance carriers are now required by regulation to provide their subscribers with up to $36,000 of coverage for autism related services each year. Please contact us at 267-525-7000 to learn more about how this may benefit you.

 Applied Behavior Analysis

What Is Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)? 

ABA is a set of principles based in learning and behavior. It stems from the idea that a person’s behavior is the result of past learning and the current environment.

ABA is evidence-based, which means it has met standards of scientific testing, including its effectiveness and usefulness.

ABA is considered a “best practice” treatment by the U.S. Surgeon General and is endorsed by many other organizations including The Autism Society of America, The National Institute of Mental Health, and The American Academy of Pediatrics.

Some common strategies used in ABA include positive reinforcement, prompting, modeling, generalization, and breaking tasks into small steps.

What Can ABA Do? 

  • Reduce Challenging Behaviors
    Tantrum, aggression, self-injury, repetitive behaviors, noncompliance, and more.
  • Teach Important Skills
    Communication, social skills, tolerance, daily living tasks, community safety and involvement, and more.

MCC offers ABA services for individuals through age 21 with Autism Spectrum Disorder and related disorders. Types of services include:

  • In-home services

Insurance Coverage 

ABA is covered by Pennsylvania Medical Assistance as managed through Community Behavioral Health (CBH), Magellan, and Community Care Behavioral Health as well as many private insurance plans for children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders.
