A telehealth option holds sessions and parent training by tablet, phone or computer with a Program Manager or Board Certified Behavior Analyst. Insurance accepted for ABA includes Anthem Blue Cross commercial plans, Molina Healthcare, CalOptima and LA Care; telehealth is accepted through Anthem Blue Cross, CalOptima and LA Care.
