Private insurance caps are $36,000/year under age 12 and $27,000/year for ages 12-21. NH Medicaid has no such caps. Achieving Stars Therapy accepts both NH Medicaid and Connor's Law commercial plans, including Cigna, Aetna, Anthem BCBS, and UnitedHealthcare.</p> </section>  <section> <h2>What Is Katie Beckett Medicaid and Does My Child Qualify?</h2> <p>Katie Beckett Medicaid allows children under 19 with a qualifying disability to access Medicaid based on the child's own income, not the family's. An autism diagnosis often qualifies. This is the path for families who earn too much for standard Medicaid but cannot afford out-of-pocket ABA costs. Achieving Stars Therapy helps families with the Katie Beckett application and covers the same services as standard NH Medicaid.</p> </section>  <section> <h2>How Does Achieving Stars Therapy Handle NH Medicaid Authorization?</h2> <ol class="steps-list"> <li><strong>Free phone consultation</strong> (15 minutes).
