Choosing home visits or a nearby academy

For home visits, discuss the routines your child needs help with and when a caregiver can take part. Orchid's Bellevue team works on an individualized plan in the setting where your family uses those skills. Ask intake about your exact service address and current appointment times before planning around a particular schedule.

For an academy, compare the two Issaquah programs. Creekside emphasizes early learning; Maple Street emphasizes school readiness. Neither is a Bellevue clinic. Ask how travel, the program day, and your child's goals would fit together. Then ask Orchid to check Apple Health coverage for the specific academy you are considering.

Questions for your Bellevue benefits check

Start with the managed care plan name on your Apple Health card and the setting you want. Ask whether Orchid is in network for that plan, which diagnostic documents are needed, and how the treatment authorization works. If your child already has an evaluation, ask whether it meets the Center of Excellence requirement before booking another appointment.

Mention any other insurance your child has so the team can discuss coordination of benefits. Keep member IDs, dates of birth, and diagnostic records out of the public contact form. Request a call with your contact details; the team can explain how to provide the documents needed for a private benefits check.

How Medicaid-funded ABA care gets started

Apple Health's rules apply statewide. Your managed care plan and the care setting determine the practical details. The steps below are a guide for children and young adults age 20 or younger.

  1. 01

    Center of Excellence evaluation

    An Apple Health approved Center of Excellence provider evaluates your child and, when appropriate, writes an ABA order.

  2. 02

    Plan and provider check

    Ask your plan which providers and settings are in network. Orchid can check the exact plan and local program with you.

  3. 03

    Assessment and authorization

    The ABA provider completes an assessment, develops a treatment plan, and requests prior authorization before services start.
