What’s available in Yreka

Coverage itself is set statewide, not locally. Medi-Cal covers medically necessary ABA for eligible children anywhere in California, and California’s autism insurance law reaches private plans issued in the state. Your address changes which providers can reach you — it doesn’t change whether you’re covered.
