ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

California requires most private health plans to cover autism treatment, including ABA therapy, under the state's autism insurance mandate (SB 946). This means families in Mission Viejo with private insurance often have coverage for medically necessary ABA services. For those covered by Medi-Cal (California's Medicaid program), ABA therapy is also a covered benefit for eligible children.

Our matching service helps you identify providers near you, Medi-Cal, or other plans. We also assist families navigating the California Regional Center system, which can help fund ABA for children under three.
