What’s available in Norton
In-home usually starts sooner than the drive is worth

Which rules apply to you
Norton is most of Norton city — roughly 100% of the county's 3,478 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.
