KyRa Lee, verified Google reviewQuestions Boulder parents ask
Do we have to wait for anything before starting ABA?
No. You can call early intervention, the school district and us on the same day. Health First Colorado's ABA benefit does not even require the diagnosis you already have.
Can my child do ABA and speech therapy at the same time?
Yes. We don't provide speech or occupational therapy ourselves, so we coordinate with your child's speech and OT providers to keep everyone working toward the same goals.
How much does ABA cost in Boulder?
Most families with Health First Colorado pay $0. We also accept Aetna and most major plans, and we check your benefits for free before anything starts.
