About AnswersNow

Our mission is to empower and enhance the lives of those affected by autism by providing accessible and personalized care through innovative virtual platforms. In August 2024 we agreed to a Value Based Care contract with Fidelis Care of New York. Value Based Care seeks to align the incentives of clinicians and insurance providers by providing compensation for the outcomes and experiences of the families served, rather than solely on hours billed. Adding a Value Based Care contract to our portfolio allows us to continue leading the way in providing state-of-the-art virtual autism care to families throughout the country, with an emphasis on exceptional outcomes.
