What’s available in Colby
In-home and telehealth aren't a compromise here
The nearest city of 50,000 or more is Eau Claire, about 58.1 miles from Colby. 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
Colby spreads across 2 counties, and most of it sits in Clark 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. Wisconsin Medicaid covers medically necessary ABA for eligible children anywhere in Wisconsin, and Wisconsin’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.
