Problem
Families of children with autism often face long waitlists, limited access to qualified behavior analysts, and inflexible in‑person therapy schedules, which delay critical early intervention and increase caregiver stress.
Solution
AnswersNow delivers evidence‑based Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy through a proprietary virtual platform, connecting children directly with board‑certified behavior analysts (BCBAs) for one‑on‑one sessions. The service eliminates waitlists by onboarding families within 3–6 weeks and offers flexible scheduling, including evenings and weekends, to fit family routines. All clinicians hold at least a master’s degree and 1,000 + supervised hours, ensuring high‑quality care typically unavailable in standard telehealth models. Therapy is personalized through comprehensive assessments that align goals with family priorities, and includes caregiver training to reinforce skills outside of sessions. Insurance, including Medicaid, is accepted, and therapy hours are billed directly to coverage, providing affordable access without out‑of‑pocket barriers.
Target Audience
Primary customers are families of children and young adults (18 months to 21 years) diagnosed with autism or related developmental disabilities who seek timely, high‑quality ABA therapy, as well as insurers and Medicaid programs covering such services.
