Aetna Autism Benefits

If you or your dependent has Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), you’ve probably faced some health plan challenges whether it’s finding the right provider for you or getting the most from your health plan. If you are enrolled in an Aetna Medical plan through Light & Wonder, ASD coverage is available to you at no extra cost.

ASD coverage includes treatment with Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), which is considered one of the most effective treatments for ASD. ABA can help positively change behaviors, encourage useful and productive behaviors and reduce harmful behaviors.

Our ASD advocates are also available to you when you need it. Advocates help with:

• Answering questions regarding benefits, including ABA treatment.
• Pairing you or your dependent with the right provider.
• Connecting you with resources for caregivers and family support.
• Coordinating with ASD care providers and caregivers.
