ABA Therapy in Pasco County, Florida

Florida law requires many private health plans to cover ABA therapy for children under 18 with autism, up to $36,000 per year (Florida Autism Insurance Mandate, 2014). For families with Medicaid, ABA is covered through Florida's Statewide Medicaid Managed Care (SMMC) program, often administered by plans like Simply Healthcare or Sunshine Health. Additionally, Florida's Early Steps program provides early intervention services for children under 3, which may include ABA.
