Parity Plus Launches First Autism-Specific, Single-Point Healthcare Claims Management Solution
New company brings together claims intelligence, care navigation and specialized oversight to support families, health plans, employers, brokers, TPAs, stop-loss carriers and providers
Atlanta, GA — June 10, 2026 — Parity Plus today announced the official launch of its autism-specific, single-point healthcare claims management solution, created to bring more care, clarity and trust to one of the most complex and rapidly growing areas of health benefits.
Parity Plus helps health plans, employers, third-party administrators, brokers, stop-loss carriers and providers better understand, manage and support autism-related healthcare claims. The company’s model combines AI-powered claims intelligence, specialized review, provider insight and family-centered support to help identify questionable billing patterns, improve visibility across the care system and protect access to appropriate care for autistic children and young adults.
“Our work begins with a simple belief: better oversight should protect care, not disrupt it,” said David Essary, CEO of Parity Plus. “Families should not be left to navigate a fragmented system alone. Employers and health plans need better visibility into what is happening across the care continuum. Strong providers deserve to be recognized for the quality work they do. Parity Plus was created to help bring those needs together in one coordinated model.”
Autism-related care can be difficult for families, plans and providers to navigate. Care may involve multiple providers, treatment plans, claims, authorizations and billing practices, often without a single clear view of what is happening across the full system. At the same time, employers and health plans are facing rising claims costs and increased pressure to ensure that resources are being used appropriately.
Parity Plus was built to address that challenge without losing sight of the child and family at the center of the care experience.
The company’s solution is designed to help:
Give families greater clarity across the care journey
Support appropriate care without unnecessary disruption
Help health plans, employers and TPAs better understand autism-related claims
Identify questionable claims and billing patterns earlier
Support strong providers delivering appropriate, high-quality care
Help brokers, consultants and stop-loss carriers bring clients a more specialized solution
Parity Plus is not designed to replace clinical judgment or create barriers to necessary care. Instead, the company provides a coordinated model that helps stakeholders see more clearly, review more effectively and make more informed decisions.
“Cost control and care quality should not be treated as competing goals,” Essary said. “The right model can help protect families, support providers and give payers the confidence that resources are going where they are truly needed.”
Parity Plus enters the market as the first autism-specific, single-point healthcare claims management company of its kind. The company is initially focused on supporting the employer-sponsored benefits market, including self-funded employers, TPAs, brokers, consultants and stop-loss partners.
