ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

California law requires many health plans to cover ABA therapy for autism, including through the state's Medicaid program, Medi-Cal. For children under 21 with a diagnosis of autism, Medi-Cal covers ABA services as a medically necessary treatment. Private insurance plans regulated by the state must also provide coverage under California's autism insurance mandate.

Our free service helps you find providers who accept your insurance, including Medi-Cal and most major private plans. We guide you through coverage options so you can focus on your child's progress.

In-home therapy brings a BCBA and registered behavior technicians to your home, helping children learn in their natural environment. Center-based programs offer structured, social settings with peer interaction, while telehealth options provide remote support for families in rural areas or with scheduling needs.

Whether you live in Concord, Walnut Creek, or Antioch, we match you with providers offering the setting that works best for your child. Many providers blend approaches to meet individual needs.

Also consider the provider's experience with your child's age group and specific needs. Our matching service pre-screens providers for credentials and quality, so you can feel confident in your choices.
