Dec. 15, 2020 - Marketdata LLC, a 41-year old market research and consulting firm specializing in the tracking of service and healthcare sectors, has released a new 57-page study: “The U.S. Market for Autism Treatment Programs”. The study analyzes the nature of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and other programs and the for-profit and non-profit treatment centers providing them, patient demographics, treatment center revenues, rankings and key metrics, the autism medications market, and more. Industry size tracked from 2009 to 2025 Forecasts, including the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.

“There are 3.5 million children and adults with autism in America. The North American market for autism disorder and treatment is expected to grow over the next five years, due to a variety of factors: more widespread awareness of the condition, efforts by advocacy groups, an increase in the number of ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) treatment programs and centers, more insurance coverage, and new and more effective drugs for the treatment of autistic patients.”, according to John LaRosa, Research Director.
 

Major Findings:

* Market Value & Growth…  This is a market valued at $2.0 billion in 2020 that is forecast to grow 4.0% per year to $2.45 billion by 2025.
