Built for Massachusetts, statewide

A Circuit Breaker claim backed by what was delivered.

Circuit Breaker reimburses part of your highest SpEd costs, but only for services on the IEP. IEP Assure keeps the service record behind every claim, all year.

$53,431 FY26 per-student Circuit Breaker claim threshold ($54,906 in FY27)

The biggest concern right now

Out-of-district and high-cost placements are driving budgets.

Circuit Breaker reimburses 75% of eligible costs above the threshold, and the threshold rises every year. Districts cover everything below it. Claims are filed each July for the prior year, so records built in June are records built too late.

The statewide solution

One solution for every Massachusetts district.

Same daily record for a one-campus district and a large one. Whether you buy on your own or through your collaborative, the record looks the same across the state.
