Autism Learning Partners is proud to partner with Georgia Medicaid to serve families in Georgia. We are contracted to work with all four Care Management Organizations. Whether your family is assigned to Amerigroup Community Care, CareSource, Peach State Health Plan, or WellCare we’re here to help! Our Intake team can walk you through the requirements to access ABA per your specific health plan assignment, but all will require an autism diagnosis made by an MD or Psychologist. An autism diagnosis will typically include a standardized assessment, such as ADOS (Autism Diagnosis Observation Schedule), ADI-R (Autism Diagnostic Interview – Revised), CARS (Childhood Autism Rating Scale), or GARS (Gilliam Autism Rating Scale). You may check your child’s autism diagnosis for the inclusion of one of these assessments but, if you’re unsure, please feel free to contact our experienced Intake team, who will advise.

Therapy sessions could take place in your home or community environment, depending on what the ALP Clinical team recommends, and if the school and insurance provides approval.

Yes, if it is considered medically necessary by the ALP Clinical team, the school district allows, and the insurance provider approves. We will collaborate with the education team to build a comprehensive plan for your child.

The medical diagnosis must come from a diagnostic provider, such as a Primary Care Physician or Psychologist. Unfortunately, an IEP will not suffice on its own. A diagnostic evaluation, like the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS), would need to be completed.

Therapy sessions might take place in your home or community, depending on what the ALP Clinical team recommends. Each session, a Behavior Technician will work one-on-one with your child, targeting individualized goals embedded into fun and functional activities. Sessions can last 2-4 hours depending on your child’s needs. Parent training is always a part of the treatment plan, as we want you to have that support.
