PE-Backed ABA Rollup — 2026 Billing Standardization

Private-equity-backed ABA platforms are the fastest-growing category in autism treatment. Rollup strategies (Autism Care Partners, LEARN Behavioral, Devereux, Rethink, BY YOUR SIDE, Cortica) face uniform billing integration challenges.

The 6 PE ABA Integration Priorities

1. EHR unification (usually CentralReach or Ensora)
2. Credentialing consolidation across state lines (see BCBA credentialing)
3. Payer contract renegotiation — leverage scale
4. MHPAEA parity appeal workflow — recover 12-18% of BH commercial denials
5. 97155 supervision documentation standardization (see 97155 guide)
6. Days-in-AR benchmark — target 40 days (see DAR guide)

Post-Acquisition Denial Recovery

Aggregate denial data across acquired clinics → identify systemic edit rules → apply fixes at platform level → measurable EBITDA lift at Year 1.
