Has anybody sign up for Obamacare yet. I have been thinking about dropping my anthem for it since anthem doesn't cover much of anything at all. I have already took out a huge equity loan on my house to pay for all the different therapy for son is going to.
I would say 8-10,earlier the better,just to get them in the routine. Our son is 17,now the challenge is shaving.
That is ridiculous. Do you know a lawyer? Maybe reach out to the autism society in your area for assistance

After 13 months of searching for a job out-of-state with an autism insurance mandate or has ABA therapy through Obamacare, we are moving to Texas. Can we get some form of insurance to cover ABA.

Now, I'm more confused based on what read. I figured I could at least buy insurance from the Obamacare marketplace. Hasn't anyone in Texas tried this?
