ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Texas

Texas law requires many private health insurance plans to cover ABA therapy for children diagnosed with autism, up to age 9, under the state's autism insurance mandate (Senate Bill 21). This includes plans regulated by the Texas Department of Insurance. We help you verify coverage with your specific plan and connect you with providers who accept it.

For families with Medicaid, Texas's Medicaid program (known as STAR, STAR Kids, or traditional Medicaid) covers ABA therapy for eligible children. Our matching service works with providers who accept Texas Medicaid, so you can access care without out-of-pocket costs. We also assist families with no insurance or those seeking self-pay options.
