California's New Autism Insurance Mandate (2011 Cal. Stats., Chap. 650; SB 946) requires every health insurance policy to provide coverage for behavioral health treatment for pervasive developmental disorders. The insurance company will request a copy of the initial diagnostic report that incudes the qualifying diagnosis. The diagnostic report must be from a Neurologist, MD or Licensed Psychologist. For reports older than 3 years, a recommendation or prescription is required for ABA services.
Hope Autism Therapies will take all of your insurance information and make the calls to the insurance company for you to determine the details of your benefits and eligibility for Applied Behavior Analysis treatment (ABA).
We will find out what is required for authorizations and determine the correct copay information for you.
