ABA Coverage in Florida

Florida law requires many private health insurance plans to cover medically necessary ABA therapy for children diagnosed with autism up to age 18. This includes services like assessment, treatment planning, and direct therapy from a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) or qualified supervisee. Coverage details vary by plan, so it's important to verify deductibles, copays, and session limits.

For families with Florida Medicaid, ABA therapy is covered for eligible children and young adults under age 21 through the Statewide Medicaid Managed Care program. Medicaid plans typically require a prescription and ongoing authorization. Our free matching service can help you find providers who accept your specific insurance or Medicaid plan, anywhere in the state.
