ABA Therapy in Bexar County, Texas

In Texas, many private health plans are required to cover ABA therapy for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate. Coverage often includes behavioral health treatment with a benefit cap, typically for children up to age 9. It is important to verify your specific plan's benefits.
