Which rules apply to you
Buena Vista is most of Buena Vista city — roughly 100% of the county's 6,581 residents live inside the city limits. In practice, the county's coverage picture is your coverage picture.
Coverage itself is set statewide, not locally. Virginia Medicaid covers medically necessary ABA for eligible children anywhere in Virginia, and 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.
