How we work with Molina Health

At Connect n Care ABA, we manage the insurance process so you can focus on what really matters: your child's therapy. We handle the paperwork, approvals, and everything in between, ensuring you don't waste time on confusing billing codes or authorization requirements.

We verify first

Give us your Molina Health details, and we'll confirm exactly what's covered before you commit to therapy. No surprises later about what Molina Health will or won't pay for.

We submit authorization requests

Molina Health requires prior authorization for ABA therapy. We know exactly what paperwork they need, how to format it, and who to follow up with when they're slow to respond.

We break down your costs

Before therapy begins, you'll know exactly what Molina Health will cover and what you'll need to pay. Real numbers, not estimates.

We handle the administrative chaos

Submitting claims, resubmitting when paperwork is missing, appealing denials — Connect n Care ABA handles everything so you don't have to.

Molina Healthcare questions we hear most

What families ask us

No. Molina Healthcare of Virginia's Cardinal Care contract ended on June 30, 2025, and its members moved to Humana Healthy Horizons on July 1. The transfer was automatic — nobody had to reapply. We keep this page up because families still search for Molina and still hold old cards.

Call us and say so. Your coverage will have moved to Humana Healthy Horizons, and ABA is covered there on the same basis. We verify the benefit under the right plan and file a fresh authorization so therapy is not held up by a card that is out of date.

For most families on Molina Healthcare, nothing. Medicaid does not carry the deductibles and coinsurance that commercial insurance does. If your plan applies any cost-sharing at all, you get the figure in writing before the first session rather than on a bill after it.

Yes. Molina Healthcare funds ABA on the basis of an autism diagnosis from a qualified provider. If your child has already been evaluated, that report is usually enough. If you are still waiting on an evaluation, call us anyway and we will tell you what the plan will need.

That comes out of the assessment rather than a fixed rule, and any provider quoting a number before meeting your child is guessing. A comprehensive program commonly runs 25 to 40 hours a week; a focused program targeting specific skills usually runs 10 to 25. You will know the approved figure before sessions start.

We appeal, and we write the appeal. A denial is usually about documentation or the number of hours rather than whether your child qualifies for ABA at all. Virginia gives you the right to appeal and to ask that services continue while it is decided. We prepare the clinical justification ourselves, and we will tell you honestly if we think an appeal is unlikely to succeed.

Yes, and in most cases it should. Molina Healthcare covers ABA in each setting on the same basis. Many families use a combination and change the balance as their child progresses.
