In-home and telehealth aren't a compromise here
The nearest city of 50,000 or more is Boulder, about 64.7 miles from Vail. Nobody should relocate or spend three hours a day in a car to get their child autism care. A plan built around your home — with telehealth carrying the parent coaching between visits — is the right answer here, not the fallback.

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