Advocating for families at a local and state level is part of the Autism Society of Alabama's mission - so it's important for us to update our friends and families on HB284, a bill requiring state-regulated health insurance plans (including state employee plans) to cover medically necessary treatment for autism, including Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). Board Certified Behavior Analyst, Ashlie Walker, created a breakdown of claims by the Business Council of Alabama vs. actual facts - BCA vs We the People.
We must react swiftly by contacting Mac McCutcheon and Kerry Rich and ask for them to have a vote on HB284 within the insurance committee next week.
