ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

In California, ABA therapy is often covered by both private insurance and Medi-Cal (California's Medicaid program). The state's autism insurance mandate (SB 946) requires many health plans to cover medically necessary ABA services for children with autism. This means families in Redwood City may have coverage through their private insurer or through Medi-Cal managed care plans.

Additionally, California's Early Start program provides early intervention services for infants and toddlers. Our free matching service can help Redwood City families verify their insurance benefits and find providers who accept their plan, including those who accept Medi-Cal. We are not a provider ourselves, but we guide you to clinics that are equipped to handle insurance and funding questions.
