ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

In California, ABA therapy is widely covered by both private insurance and Medi-Cal (the state's Medicaid program). California's autism insurance mandate (SB 946) requires many health plans to cover medically necessary ABA services for children diagnosed with autism. This means that most families in California City can use their insurance to help pay for therapy.

For families with Medi-Cal, ABA therapy is covered through the state's managed care plans. Additionally, early intervention services (Early Start) are available for children under 3, which may include ABA-based supports. We work with providers who are experienced in navigating these systems, so you don't have to worry about the paperwork. Let us help you understand your coverage options.
