ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

California law requires most health plans to cover medically necessary ABA therapy for autism, thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate (Senate Bill 946 and subsequent laws). This means families in Encinitas can often access ABA with little to no out-of-pocket cost through private insurance. We help you find providers who accept your specific plan.

For families covered by Medi-Cal, California's Medicaid program, ABA therapy is also a covered benefit for children under 21 when deemed medically necessary. Our matching service verifies which providers in our network accept Medi-Cal and other California insurance plans, making the process smoother for Encinitas families.
