Coverage itself is set statewide, not locally. Texas Medicaid covers medically necessary ABA for eligible children anywhere in Texas, and Texas’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.
