ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

This mandate (SB 946, now part of California's Mental Health Parity Act) ensures that ABA is a covered benefit, including in San Carlos. Our free service helps verify your specific plan's coverage and match you with providers that accept your insurance.

For families with Medi-Cal (California's Medicaid program), ABA therapy is also covered as an essential health benefit. Early intervention services through the state's Early Start program may also be available for children under three. We guide you through the process and connect you with providers who accept Medi-Cal, so cost is never a barrier to getting high-quality ABA care.
