Here in Minnesota, families have enjoyed full coverage of ABA treatment of their children for over ten years – by Blue Cross Blue Shield, by MN Medicaid, and by the high-risk insurance pool offered by the Minnesota Comprehensive Health Association (MCHA).
But this year, we have a perfect storm of cuts to this coverage. The BCBS program has already cut funding, the Medicaid program is being “reformed,” and the MCHA program is slated to disappear and be replaced by the ACA. As a result, 90% of our families could easily lose most or all of their coverage. Things are hanging by a thread.
