Caveats
-------

- ABA is billed here under HCPCS codes, not only the CPT codes shown. See the state notes for those rates.

How we read this state's schedule
---------------------------------

Status 'not\_covered' applies to the requested CPT codes only; ABA itself IS covered under HCPCS codes (see below). MaineCare does not pay ABA under CPT 97151-97158. 0362T and 0373T are explicitly non-covered. ABA is covered, but billed under HCPCS H2021 in Section 28. Current Applied Behavior Analysis rates per 15 min (effective 4/30/2026): H2021 U1 HK one-to-one 27.87; U1 HK UN 2-member group 15.19; U1 HK UP 3-member 10.82; U1 HK UQ 4-8 member 8.76. School-related: U2 HK 23.43; U2 HK UN 12.96; U2 HK UP 9.14; U2 HK UQ 7.29. Adaptive Skills Training (BHP): H2021 TJ HI 20.51 / UN 11.19 / UP 7.97 / UQ 6.44. School-related: TR HI 17.36 / UN 9.58 / UP 6.78 / UQ 5.39. The PDF and XLSX values match. The earlier 'Rehabilitative and Community Support Services for Children' schedule (1/1/2026-4/29/2026) had the same H2021 rates. Checked for ABA CPT codes: MaineCare UCR CSV (updated 2026-09-28), Section 65 Behavioral Health 2026, Section 90 Physician 2026. Non-Covered Codes CSV (updated 2026-09-28).
