Rise Up For Autism: home

Yes, We Accept Medicaid. Here's Exactly How.

If you've called other ABA providers with a Medicaid plan, you've probably heard “we don't accept Medicaid” (or been pointed at a marketplace workaround). Rise Up for Autism accepts Medicaid through Blue Cross Community Health Plans (BCCHP) at all four of our Illinois centers. Real program, real therapy, no runaround.

What BCCHP gets your child

AGES 2–5

The full program

Evaluation, ABA, speech, OT: one team, one plan.

AGES 6–12

The after-school program

School part of the day, therapy the other part, coordinated with your child's signed IEP.

How it works
  1. Signed IEP from your child's school

  2. School half-day + center half-day

  3. We coordinate both: one team
