ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California

California's Medicaid program, Medi-Cal, covers ABA therapy for eligible children when deemed medically necessary. Additionally, California's autism insurance mandate (SB 946) requires many private health plans to provide coverage for ABA services, including those offered by BCBAs. This means most families in Palo Alto can use their insurance to help pay for therapy.

Our matching team can help you identify providers who accept your specific insurance plan, whether it's a PPO, HMO, or Medi-Cal. We work with vetted ABA providers throughout Santa Clara County who are experienced in navigating California's coverage landscape.
