What’s available in Advance

In-home and telehealth aren't a compromise here

The nearest city of 50,000 or more is Jonesboro, about 98.4 miles from Advance. 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.

MO HealthNet covers medically necessary ABA for eligible children anywhere in Missouri, and Missouri’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.
