ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

California's Medicaid program, Medi-Cal, covers ABA therapy for eligible children under the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit. Many private insurance plans in California also cover ABA, thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate (SB 946), which requires most health plans to provide coverage for autism treatment.

Our team can help you verify your insurance benefits and connect you with providers who accept your plan, including Medi-Cal. We work with a network of vetted providers who understand California's coverage landscape.
