What’s available in Montgomery
In-home usually starts sooner than the drive is worth
The nearest city of any size is Charleston, roughly 20.8 miles away. That's a real trip twice a day, and for most families in Montgomery it means in-home ABA starts sooner and sticks better — with a center added later only if peer goals become the priority.

Which rules apply to you
Montgomery spreads across 2 counties, and most of it sits in Fayette County. That matters more than it sounds: county lines can decide which offices, school district, and local Medicaid contacts you deal with, so it's worth confirming which county your address actually falls in.
Coverage itself is set statewide, not locally. West Virginia Medicaid covers medically necessary ABA for eligible children anywhere in West Virginia, and West Virginia’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.
