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