ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

In California, ABA therapy is often covered by private insurance plans under the state's autism insurance mandate (SB 946). This law requires many health plans to provide coverage for medically necessary autism treatments, including ABA, for children up to age 21. California's Medicaid program, known as Medi-Cal, also covers ABA therapy for eligible children through managed care plans. Additionally, the state's Early Start program may fund ABA services for infants and toddlers under age 3.

Our free matching service helps you navigate these options. We can connect you with providers who accept your specific insurance or Medi-Cal plan, and we'll clarify any coverage details. No matter your insurance situation, we'll work to find an ABA provider in San Leandro that fits your family's needs and budget.
