Which rules apply to you
Elkhart is most of Morton County — roughly 69% of the county's 2,485 residents live inside the city limits. In practice, the county's coverage picture is your coverage picture.
Coverage itself is set statewide, not locally. Kansas Medicaid covers medically necessary ABA for eligible children anywhere in Kansas, and Kansas’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.
