ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Texas

In Texas, ABA therapy is covered by most private insurance plans under the state's autism insurance mandate (Senate Bill 219, effective 2007). This law requires many employer-sponsored and individual health plans to cover medically necessary ABA for children diagnosed with autism. Texas Medicaid, including STAR and STAR Kids managed care plans, also covers ABA therapy for eligible children up to age 20.

Our free service helps you verify your coverage. Just share your insurance information (or inquire about Medicaid), and we'll connect you with Port Aransas-area providers who accept your plan-no out-of-pocket surprises. If your child is under 3, Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) programs in Nueces County may also provide ABA-related supports.
