ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California
In California, most private health insurance plans are required to cover ABA therapy for autism under the state's autism insurance mandate (SB 946). This means your child may have benefits for diagnostic and therapeutic services. Additionally, California's Medicaid program, Medi-Cal, covers ABA for eligible children when deemed medically necessary.
