    Autism Coverage Fund

    Welcome to the Autism Coverage Reimbursement Program, the system responsible for managing and administering the Autism Coverage Fund.  This fund was established by Public Act 101 of 2012 for the purpose of assisting health insurance carriers offset the costs of offering autism benefits for the diagnosis and treatment of autism spectrum disorders (ASD).

    In addition, self-insured plans that self-adopt an autism benefit may also, directly or through their third party administrator (TPA), file claims for employees who reside in Michigan and receive a diagnosis and treatment for ASD by Michigan providers.

    Filing a claim for reimbursement from the Autism Coverage Fund can be easily accomplished. To participate, a carrier or TPA must first request a username and password through an online form.  Once approved, the carrier or TPA can complete and submit the required Certification and Claims Data documents online.  

    It is important to note that only a carrier or TPA as defined under PA 101 of 2012 are eligible to submit claims for reimbursement from the Autism Coverage Fund.
