The EIDBI Level II Provider/Behavior Technician delivers individualized, evidence-based behavioral intervention services to children and adolescents diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or related developmental disabilities under Minnesota's Early Intensive Developmental and Behavioral Intervention (EIDBI) benefit. Services are provided under the supervision of a Qualified Supervising Professional (QSP) or Level I provider and are designed to improve communication, social interaction, adaptive living skills, emotional regulation, independence, and reduction of challenging behaviors.

The Level II Provider collaborates closely with families, caregivers, supervisors, and interdisciplinary team members to ensure quality, culturally responsive, and person-centered treatment.

Minnesota DHS requires Level II providers to participate in treatment planning, implement interventions with fidelity, collect data, document services, support family training, and receive ongoing supervision until supervision requirements are met.
