Texas Medicaid

Coverage varies by plan. We complete a verification of benefits before care begins.

After intake, the team verifies coverage and follows up within one business day.
Many families can schedule an initial meeting or assessment in the same week.
Independent providers support children and young adults across the pediatric age range.
The providers we work with bring therapy to you, wherever your child is most comfortable.
That might mean home, daycare, school, or virtual sessions. Our flexible care model ensures that therapy integrates into your family’s daily routine, rather than disrupting it.
Our network is made up of independent, local clinicians who prioritize collaboration, not control, so you stay in charge of your child’s care.

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a research-backed therapy that helps children develop communication, behavior, social, and daily living skills. It’s one of the most widely recommended therapies for children with autism and developmental differences.
Most providers in our network offer care in the home, school, or daycare centers. We also support community-based or virtual sessions depending on your location and needs.
Yes. Alpaca supports families across major metros and smaller communities, with secure telehealth available when in-person travel or provider proximity is a challenge.
Many Texas commercial and public plans include ABA benefits. Coverage, copays, deductibles, referrals, and prior authorization vary, so Alpaca verifies benefits before care begins.
Depending on provider availability and facility permission, care may happen at home, in a clinic, at school or daycare, in community settings, or virtually.
