Getting health benefits, including medically necessary care for autism, from your job-based health plan should not be a struggle. In recognition of World Autism Month, we've partnered with Department of Labor representatives to bring you this discussion on your legal right to coverage of medically necessary care for autism under job-based health plans.

If you receive health insurance coverage through your employer, then your health benefit plan is protected by certain "parity protections" under federal law. Join this session to learn:

What benefits your job-based health plan is required to provide;
How the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act protects your right to autism care, including ABA therapy;
Red flags to look for in exclusions, limitations, or denials that may mean you still have a right to coverage;
How to appeal an exclusion, limitation, or denied claim;
And where to find treatment services or other autism resources.

If you cannot join live, please still register as we will share the recording via email with all registrants afterward.
