    Cost is one of the first questions parents ask, and the answer depends on insurance, diagnosis, and recommended hours. The good news: most Minnesota families have options that keep out-of-pocket costs low.

    Typical coverage sources

    • Medical Assistance and MinnesotaCare through EIDBI
    • Private insurance such as Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota and UCare
    • Employer-sponsored plans that include autism benefits

    What families usually pay

    Many families pay little to nothing after insurance and EIDBI. Deductibles, co-insurance, and plan limits can affect costs, so we verify benefits before services begin.
