ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

If you have private insurance, we can help you understand your benefits and find a provider who is in-network.

For families with Medi-Cal (California's Medicaid program), ABA services are also available. Many ABA providers in Kern County accept Medi-Cal, and some offer services through regional centers or school districts.
