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 (the Steven A. Geller Autism Coverage Act). This means your plan may cover diagnostic evaluations, ABA sessions, and related services. We can help you verify your benefits.

Florida's Medicaid program, known as Medicaid (including the Statewide Medicaid Managed Care plans), also covers ABA therapy for eligible children. Our team works with providers who accept both private insurance and Medicaid, so financial barriers don't stand in the way of your child's care.
