ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

In California, many private insurance plans are required to cover ABA therapy for autism under the state's autism insurance mandate (SB 946). This includes plans regulated by the Department of Managed Health Care and the California Department of Insurance. For families with Medi-Cal (California's Medicaid program), ABA services are also covered when deemed medically necessary, often through managed care plans.

Our team can help verify your coverage and connect you with providers who accept your insurance or Medi-Cal. We work with families across Santa Clara County, including San Jose, Palo Alto, and Gilroy, to ensure you understand your benefits before starting therapy.
