ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

In California, many private health insurance plans are required to cover ABA therapy for children under 18, thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate. Additionally, children enrolled in Medi-Cal, California's Medicaid program, may qualify for ABA services through the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit.

Before starting services, we help verify your insurance benefits with matched providers. If you have Medi-Cal or a private plan, your out-of-pocket costs may be minimal or zero, depending on your specific policy. Our matched providers are experienced in working with a variety of insurance plans and can help navigate coverage details.
