ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Florida

Florida law requires many private health insurance plans to cover ABA therapy for autism, thanks to the state's autism insurance mandate. This means families in Anna Maria can often use their employer-based or individual plans to access care. We help verify your specific coverage during the matching process.

For families with Florida Medicaid, the Statewide Medicaid Managed Care program typically covers ABA therapy when deemed medically necessary. We work with providers who accept both private insurance and Medicaid, ensuring cost is not a barrier to getting started.
