What’s available in San Diego
In-home and telehealth aren't a compromise here
The nearest city of 50,000 or more is Corpus Christi, about 65.2 miles from San Diego. 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.

Which rules apply to you
San Diego spreads across 2 counties, and most of it sits in Duval 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. 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.
