Be your own boss. Start your own ABA practice, powered by Alpaca Health.

Alpaca Health helps BCBAs start their own ABA practice. Big corporations often churn out clients and staff in search of greater profit. At Alpaca Health, out mission is to power independent BCBAs who put their science, team, and clients first.

Think a client only needs 10 hours? No pressure to ask for 40.

Can't take on more clients? You control your hours with no productivity quotas. We welcome part-time BCBAs.

Want to deliver direct services? No sweat. Do what your clients need.

We empower you to do what's best for your ABA community with best-in-class technology, ethical applications of AI, and a provider success team to guide you every step of the way.

We handle everything non-clinical: LLC formation, payer contracting, intake, scheduling, billing, and more.

As a Founder, you will grow your own ABA community. You will grow your team, work with families, and fulfill your passion for ABA -- all without dealing with paperwork.
