Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the design, implementation, and evaluation of environmental modifications, using behavioral stimuli and consequences, to produce socially significant improvement in human behavior, including the use of direct observation, measurement, and functional analysis of the relationship between environment and behavior. Billing procedures prior to January 1, 2019 were done according to temporary CPT III Codes. The AMA adopted permanent CPT I codes effective January 1, 2019. Several significant changes occurred within the new code set. UHIN convened an ABA Billing Subcommittee to review the new codes and update the ABA Billing Standard under Utah State Rule R590-164. Payors and providers are encouraged to review the updated standard and understand the requirements pertaining to the new codes.
