You need a reliable team that understands your child's needs and takes care of the insurance process, so you can focus on the only thing that counts.
Verify benefits before your first appointment
Submit authorizations and handle follow-ups
Manage claims, reauthorizations, and appeals
At Connect n Care ABA, we manage the insurance process so you can focus on what really matters: your child's therapy. We handle the paperwork, approvals, and everything in between, ensuring you don't waste time on confusing billing codes or authorization requirements.
Give us your WellCare details, and we'll confirm exactly what's covered before you commit to therapy. No surprises later about what WellCare will or won't pay for.
WellCare requires prior authorization for ABA therapy. We know exactly what paperwork they need, how to format it, and who to follow up with when they're slow to respond.
Before therapy begins, you'll know exactly what WellCare will cover and what you'll need to pay. Real numbers, not estimates.
Submitting claims, resubmitting when paperwork is missing, appealing denials — Connect n Care ABA handles everything so you don't have to.

Learn moreCall us or fill out our contact form. We'll need your WellCare member ID and your child's autism diagnosis documentation.
We verify your benefits directly with WellCare to give you clear answers and coverage.
We prepare and submit the prior authorization request with all required clinical documentation. Then we follow up with WellCare until they process it.
Once WellCare approves coverage, we schedule your child's first session, in your home or at school, based on your family's needs and schedule.
We know how WellCare works. We've processed hundreds of WellCare authorizations and understand their documentation.
You don't need to become fluent in insurance terminology. We manage the whole process — from verification to final claims.
You'll know your costs upfront before therapy begins, not vague estimates that turn into surprise bills later.
Whether in your home or at school, therapy happens in real settings, with real-world challenges.
If WellCare denies coverage, we'll explain the real reason and appeal with the right documentation.
We accept WellCare for families across North Carolina. Most sessions take place at home or at your child's school, and our team handles the benefits check and authorization paperwork before therapy starts.
WellCare of North Carolina merged into Carolina Complete Health on 1 April 2026, and members moved across automatically with the same benefits. If you are looking for WellCare coverage, that page is the one to read.
Charlotte is home to our only clinic. In-home and school-based ABA reaches 50 cities and 19 counties across North Carolina, from Asheville to Wilmington.
Not as a separate plan. WellCare of North Carolina merged into Carolina Complete Health on April 1, 2026. Members moved across automatically, kept their benefits and did not need to reapply. We keep this page up because families still hold cards with the WellCare name on them and search for it.
Nothing urgent. Your coverage sits with Carolina Complete Health now and ABA is covered exactly as before. Tell us when you call and we will verify the benefit under the right plan — you do not need a new card in hand before we start.
For most families on WellCare, nothing. Medicaid does not carry the deductibles and coinsurance that commercial insurance does. If your plan applies any cost-sharing at all, you get the figure in writing before the first session rather than on a bill after it.
Yes. WellCare funds ABA on the basis of an autism diagnosis from a qualified provider. If your child has already been evaluated, that report is usually enough. If you are still waiting on an evaluation, call us anyway and we will tell you what the plan will need.
That comes out of the assessment rather than a fixed rule, and any provider quoting a number before meeting your child is guessing. A comprehensive program commonly runs 25 to 40 hours a week; a focused program targeting specific skills usually runs 10 to 25. You will know the approved figure before sessions start.
We appeal, and we write the appeal. A denial is usually about documentation or the number of hours rather than whether your child qualifies for ABA at all. North Carolina gives you the right to appeal and to ask that services continue while it is decided. We prepare the clinical justification ourselves, and we will tell you honestly if we think an appeal is unlikely to succeed.
Yes, and in most cases it should. WellCare covers ABA in each setting on the same basis. Many families use a combination and change the balance as their child progresses.
