ABA Practice Management: Why Most Clinics Need a Consultant

ABA practice management consulting is specialized business advisory services designed specifically for applied behavior analysis clinics. Unlike general business consulting, ABA-specific consultants understand the CPT code set, payer credentialing, BCBA workforce dynamics, and ABA-specific compliance requirements.

The average ABA clinic is collecting 70–85 cents on every dollar it bills. Best-in-class clinics collect 90–95 cents. For a clinic billing $1 million annually, the difference between 75% and 92% collection is $170,000 per year.

BCBA and RBT turnover rates of 30–60% annually are common. The cost of that turnover is one of the largest hidden expenses in most ABA clinics.

Most ABA clinics are built around the founder's knowledge and relationships. That works at 20 clients. It breaks down at 50.
