ABA Therapy in Broward County, Florida

Florida's Medicaid program covers ABA therapy for eligible children under the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit. Additionally, Florida's autism insurance mandate (Florida Statute 627.6686) requires many state-regulated health plans to provide coverage for ABA up to age 18 or 21, depending on the plan.

Our free service helps you verify your specific insurance or Medicaid coverage and match you with Broward County providers who accept your plan. We work with families on commercial insurance, Medicaid, and self-pay options.

Broward County families can choose from multiple ABA therapy settings. In-home sessions allow therapists to work in your child's natural environment, while center-based clinics (found in cities like Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, and Coral Springs) offer structured environments with peer interaction opportunities. Many providers also offer telehealth ABA for parent coaching and direct services.

Whether your child thrives at home or in a clinic, our matching service can help you find providers in Broward County that offer the setting that best fits your family's schedule and goals.

When choosing an ABA provider in Broward County, look for clinics led by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) who supervise registered behavior technicians (RBTs). Ensure the provider conducts a functional assessment and creates an individualized treatment plan with measurable goals. It's also important to find a provider who communicates regularly with your family and coordinates with your child's school and other therapists.

Our free matching service only partners with vetted, BCBA-led providers, so you can feel confident in the quality of care recommended to you.

Getting started with ABA therapy in Broward County typically starts with a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. Once you have a diagnosis, you can contact your insurance or use our free matching service to find providers. Many providers require a prescription or referral from a physician.

After that, you'll schedule an initial assessment with a BCBA who will develop a personalized plan. Our team can guide you through each step, from verifying benefits to scheduling the first session.
