Finding autism therapy in Chattanooga is a big step. These 10 questions to ask about ABA therapy can help you compare providers with confidence.
At Carry On Therapy, we meet families where they are. We offer in-home and in-school ABA therapy in the Chattanooga area now. Our Chattanooga clinic is opening soon.
1. How soon can we start?
Many providers have waitlists that last a year or two. Carry On Therapy has no waitlist, so we can start right away. Ask any provider for their current wait time.
2. Do you accept my insurance?
Carry On Therapy accepts most insurance plans, including most Medicaid plans in Tennessee and Mississippi. Every plan is different, so check your coverage with your insurance company directly.
3. Where does ABA therapy happen?
Some providers work only in a clinic. Others come to your home or your child's school. Carry On Therapy provides in-home and in-school ABA in Chattanooga today.
4. Who writes and oversees the treatment plan?
At Carry On Therapy, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) designs and supervises every plan. Ask any provider who that person is and how often they see your child.
5. Is the plan built around my child?
Ask how goals are chosen and how your family's priorities are included.
6. Who works with my child each day?
Ask about therapist training and supervision. Ask what happens if a therapist is out.
7. How are parents involved?
Ask how often you will meet with the team and how you will learn the strategies.
8. How is progress tracked and shared?
Ask what data is collected and how often you get updates.
9. Will you work with my child's school?
Ask whether the team can coordinate with teachers. Carry On Therapy offers in-school ABA.
10. What do I need to get started?
