This means most Tucson families can access therapy with little or no out-of-pocket cost.

Our team helps verify your insurance or AHCCCS coverage before matching you with providers. We work with clinics that accept Arizona's major plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, and AHCCCS contracted health plans.
