Simply put, the general goals of ABA are to: Decrease behaviors that are harmful or can affect learning. Increase behaviors that are desired. We do this by incorporating a variety of evidence-based strategies throughout our treatment sessions. Click the button below to learn more about treatment strategies. strategies Qualifications for service Autism Spectrum Disorder Diagnosis Referral from doctor/pediatrician In network insurance Who provides ABA? In accordance with the Behavior Analyst Certification Board and Kentucky Applied Behavior Analysis Licensing Board, all ABA programs at The KSC are overseen by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and implemented by a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). What is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst ® (BCBA ® )? The Board Certified Behavior Analyst ® (BCBA ® ) is a graduate-level certification in behavior analysis. Professionals certified at the BCBA level are independent practitioners who provide behavior-analytic services. Responsibilities of the BCBA ● Complete the initial assessment, Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA) and Behavior Supports Plan (BSP) ● Provide ongoing supervision for the RBT providing ABA services and ensure correct implementation of each patient's behavior program ● Provide parent training, at minimum, 1x monthly ● Monitor and analyze data to ensure treatment effectiveness and validity What is a Registered Behavior Technician ® (RBT ® )?

Responsibilities of the RBT ● Provide ABA services on a daily/weekly basis ● Consistently and accurately collect data towards patient treatment goals ● Report to the BCBA supervisor ● Communicate any parent concerns to the BCBA supervisor How much ABA will my child be scheduled for? The amount of ABA (dosage) recommended for your child will be determined by the supervising BCBA in the initial assessment. This recommendation will be based on parent reports and standardized scores from assessments completed prior to and during the initial assessment process. In general KSC has a minimum requirement of 6 hours per week (unless otherwise indicated by the supervising BCBA based on initial assessment data). In accordance with the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB), The Kid SpOt Center recognizes two categories of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) treatment: Focused and Comprehensive. What is my role as a parent/guardian? The KSC views caregivers as vital to their child’s progress. As children spend the majority of their daily lives with their caregivers, it is so important that those caregivers are involved in developing their child’s program, educated on strategies and interventions used during therapy, and trained in using these at home. Therefore, we ask that all caregivers commit to the following responsibilities: Consistent participation in implementing BSP and recommended strategies Collecting data to aid BCBA and RBT in monitoring progress Communicating with BCBA and RBT about any concerns with their child’s program or implementation of it Attendance of 1x/monthly caregiver trainings (at minimum) Consistent attendance of ABA appointments Potential benefits and risk of ABA Potential Benefits: Increased social skills Overall functionality within all settings Increased communication skills Increased independence in daily living/vocational skills Decreased behaviors such as self-injury, aggression, etc. Increased parent confidence and support in addressing problematic behaviors Generalization of skills to all environments Potential Risks: Costs: the costs associated with ABA therapy may be high, depending on insurance coverage and plans Duration of treatment: depending on presenting behaviors, age and severity, some patients may be in ABA therapy for a long amount of time Lack of carryover in other settings (home, school, secondary caregiver, etc.): may prolong ABA therapy or decrease its effectiveness Extinction bursts may occur: a temporary escalation in target behavior that was previously reinforced How long does ABA last? The Kid SpOt Center provides ABA services as long as is medically necessary as indicated by parent reports, behavior data and performance on standardized tests/assessments. Do we accept insurance?

PBS may be covered by EPSDT (Michelle P. Wavier). All other insurances/diagnoses can receive PBS as a self-pay service as PBS is not covered outside of EPSDT. As PBS is a self-pay service, there are no insurance/diagnoses requirements to qualify. A self-pay initial assessment can be completed to determine if PBS services would be beneficial for a child. ABA Waitlist Under most insurance plans, ABA is only covered for individuals with a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder, therefore, only individuals with this diagnosis can go on the ABA waitlist.
