The New York read
What Paid ads has to solve in New York.
Auction pressure
New York is a competitive ABA market (25.8 BCBAs per 100k residents, #11 of 51 for BCBA density), and "ABA therapy" keywords carry the cost to match. We tighten geography to the zip codes each location can serve and push budget toward service-line and insurance searches competitors underbid.
Coverage-qualified copy
Ads and landing pages should qualify by coverage before the click. In New York, Insurance Law § 3221(l)(6) (2011) carries no annual dollar cap and has no age limit; saying who you can serve - and which payers you take - filters out inquiries intake can't use and lowers cost per qualified inquiry.
Geography
Excellent access in NYC metro and strong in Albany, Buffalo, and Syracuse. Rural upstate New York and the Adirondacks have limited providers. Campaign geography should mirror that map: tight radiuses around each clinic, broader in-home or telehealth targeting where families have no nearby option.
Recruiting
Paid also fills the clinical pipeline. With BCBAs averaging about $75,104 and RBTs about $20.35/hr in New York (above the national average), recruiting campaigns with the right offer often return more growth than another family-acquisition campaign - capacity is usually the constraint.

FAQ
Paid ads questions from New York.
Q.01How much should an ABA provider in New York spend on ads?
Enough to fill the capacity you have, and no more. We size budgets from open caseload slots, your intake conversion rate, and the cost per inquiry in each New York market, then scale on cost per qualified inquiry. Our free marketing budget planner gives a starting range.
Q.02Can ABA providers in New York use remarketing?
Not on autism-related browsing. Google's personalized-advertising policy treats health conditions as a sensitive category, so remarketing audiences built from visits to ABA or autism pages aren't permitted, and Meta restricts health-based targeting too. We build on search intent, geography, and contextual targeting instead, with HIPAA-conscious tracking.
Q.03Should paid ads in New York target families or BCBAs?
Whichever constraint is binding. If caseload slots sit empty, budget goes to families; if the waitlist grows faster than you can staff, it shifts to BCBA and RBT recruiting. With high hiring demand in New York, most programs run both.
