Achieving Stars Therapy, Colorado’s leading in-home ABA provider, is preparing families and payers for the January 1, 2025 CPT code changes. The updates demand outcome-based documentation, clearer reporting, and measurable progress.

Colorado, United States, 15th Aug 2025 – Starting January 1, 2025, sweeping changes to CPT billing codes will take effect for Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy, marking a shift toward measurable results, clearer documentation, and stronger accountability.
For Colorado’s families, these changes will impact how services are delivered, reported, and funded. Achieving Stars Therapy, a leading provider of in-home ABA therapy across Colorado, is positioning itself at the forefront of this transition—helping families and payers navigate a new era of outcome-driven care.
A Turning Point for ABA in Colorado
The 2025 revisions streamline overlapping service codes, add new reporting standards around treatment effectiveness, and require documentation tied directly to medical necessity and individual progress. While some see these rules as added red tape, advocates point to their potential to raise quality and transparency across the field.
Colorado’s budget pressures and evolving Medicaid requirements mean providers must now clearly demonstrate the value of every service. For families, that translates into therapy plans with trackable goals, clear progress reporting, and care that adapts in real time.
How Achieving Stars is Preparing
Outcome-focused treatment plans – Each goal, whether improving communication or reducing challenging behavior, is tied to measurable progress data.
Stronger documentation – All session notes link directly to medical necessity, ensuring compliance and easier reimbursement.
Team training – Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) are trained on the 2025 code set and updated reporting requirements.
Parent-friendly progress reports – Data is translated into clear language, empowering families to understand and participate in their child’s development.
Broad service coverage – From Colorado Springs to Fort Collins, services include functional behavior assessments, social skills training, toilet training, school collaboration, caregiver coaching, and early intervention.
What It Means for Families
For parents, these changes mean less jargon and more clarity. Under the new standards, a progress note might read:
“Goal: functional request ‘drink.’ Child requested independently 4 times this session (up from 1 time last week). Will reduce prompting by 25% next week.”
This level of detail gives families and payers a transparent look at progress, making therapy more collaborative and accountable.
