ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Texas

Texas Medicaid (including STAR and STAR Kids) covers ABA therapy for eligible children with an autism diagnosis. Many private insurance plans in Texas are also required to cover autism treatment under state law (Texas Insurance Code Chapter 1355), which mandates coverage for children up to age 9 in certain plans.

For families in Nueces County, this means ABA can often be accessed with little to no out-of-pocket cost. Our team can help verify your coverage and match you with providers who accept your plan.

In-home, center-based & telehealth ABA in Nueces County

Nueces County families have options for where ABA therapy takes place. In-home therapy allows children to learn in familiar surroundings, while center-based programs offer structured environments with peer interaction. Telehealth ABA is also available for certain goals and can reduce travel time.

Providers in Corpus Christi and surrounding areas often offer a mix of these settings. During your free matching call, we will ask about your preferences to connect you with providers that offer the setting best suited to your child.

What to look for in an ABA provider

A qualified ABA provider should have Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) overseeing treatment plans, and Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) delivering direct therapy. Look for providers who conduct thorough assessments, set measurable goals, and involve families in the process.

It is also important to ask about experience with your child's specific needs, communication style, and age group. Our matching service screens providers to ensure they meet these standards, so you can feel confident in your choices.
