  • Evaluate ABA treatment plans, goals, supervision models, requested service intensity, and progress/outcomes using behavior analytic principles and evidence-based practices.
  • Analyze clinical documentation, benefit plans, mandates, and medical/behavioral health policies to support determinations related to ABA services.
  • Determine medical necessity and appropriateness by referencing applicable regulatory mandates, contracts/benefit information, and clinical guidelines and policies.
  • Conduct research and analysis of behavioral health conditions, ABA treatment methodologies, and emerging practices within the field of behavior analysis.
  • Collaborate with internal clinical leadership (e.g., medical directors) and cross-functional partners (e.g., provider and member services) to support appropriate benefit application and case decision-making.
  • Coordinate as needed with internal partners and providers related to benefit determinations and case-related follow-up.
  • Make appropriate referrals and contacts as needed; support members and providers with alternative care options when appropriate.
  • Provide guidance to providers and internal teams regarding ABA best practices, documentation standards, and authorization requirements.
  • Develop and present educational materials on ABA topics, treatment trends, and case learnings to internal stakeholders.

Requirements

  • Master’s Degree or higher in Behavior Analysis, Psychology, Education, or a related field
  • Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) certification — active and in good standing
  • Active state licensure as a Behavior Analyst (if required in the practicing state) — required where applicable
  • 3–5+ years of clinical ABA experience
  • Direct patient care experience delivering ABA services (e.g., in-home, center-based, school-based, community)
  • Demonstrated experience developing ABA treatment plans, including:
    • Functional behavior assessment/analysis (FBA/FA) and clinical documentation
    • Individualized goal development and measurement strategies
    • Treatment plan updates based on data and clinical progress
    • Caregiver training and/or supervision/model oversight (as applicable)
  • Strong written and interpersonal communication skills; ability to communicate effectively with providers and internal stakeholders
  • Strong clinical assessment and analytical skills with the ability to make sound, timely determinations
  • Ability to manage competing priorities and maintain organization in a fast-paced environment
  • Proficiency with web-based tools and Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior experience in utilization management, care management, or payer-side review of ABA services
  • Working knowledge of managed care and health delivery systems
  • Familiarity with clinical guidelines, medical policies, accreditation, and regulatory standards (e.g., NCQA and comparable standards)
  • Comfort working in a web-based systems environment and using online resources to support clinical review decisions
