ABA Mission Commentary
CentralReach remains the platform to beat. While it faces criticism around complexity, cost, and perceived rigidity, few providers exit once implemented due to switching friction and feature completeness. Its product roadmap increasingly emphasizes AI-driven automation, particularly in revenue cycle operations.
The company’s acquisition by Roper Technologies in 2025 marks a new phase focused on long-term product strategy and operational efficiency. Its partnership with CASP signals a growing role in shaping national infrastructure for autism care delivery. While not yet connected to Jade Health or NADR, CentralReach’s influence—and data—remain pivotal for policy, research, and benchmarking efforts.
