ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in California
In California, ABA therapy is considered a medically necessary treatment for autism and is covered by many private health plans under the state's autism insurance mandate (SB 946 and AB 1187). Medi-Cal, California's Medicaid program, also covers ABA for eligible children under the age of 21 as part of the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit.

In-home, center-based & telehealth ABA in Fresno County
Fresno County families can choose from several delivery models. In-home ABA allows therapists to work with your child in a familiar environment, targeting routines and naturalistic learning. Many local providers also offer center-based services in cities like Fresno and Clovis, where children can practice social skills with peers.
Telehealth ABA is another option, especially for rural areas such as Kerman or Parlier. Therapists guide parents through strategies via video sessions, with some providers combining virtual coaching with periodic in-person visits. We'll help you find the model that fits your family's needs and schedule.
What to look for in an ABA provider
Qualified ABA providers should have Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) designing and overseeing treatment plans. BCBAs supervise Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) who deliver direct therapy. Look for a provider that uses family-centered, evidence-based approaches and conducts regular assessments to track progress.
It's also important that the provider communicates clearly with you, respects your child's strengths and challenges, and coordinates with other professionals like speech therapists or school teams.
