About the company

What believers are saying
- Daytime schedules protect evenings: The Kidz Club closes nights, Sundays and major holidays.
- Kidz Club integrates intensive treatment: children with qualifying Medicaid plans receive up to nine therapy hours weekly.
- Kidz Club removes family attendance fees: Medicaid insurance covers the cost of attending its centers.
What critics are saying
- Kidz Club enrollment depends on outside approval: provider-signed care plans go to insurers before families receive start dates.

- Kentucky care teams face recurring scrutiny: The Kidz Club's centers receive state inspections at least annually.
What makes The Kidz Club unique
- Kidz Club builds infection controls into centers: HEPA filtration accompanies chlorine dioxide decontamination and medical-grade sanitizing.

- Kidz Club separates center leadership: nursing directors oversee clinical care; administrators handle operations, transportation, staffing and performance.
