ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Florida

In Florida, ABA therapy is commonly covered by private insurance plans, including those obtained through the Affordable Care Act marketplace. Many policies include benefits for autism-related services, and our team can help you understand your specific coverage and find providers who accept your insurance. We also work with families who use Florida Medicaid, including the Statewide Inpatient Psychiatric Program (SIPP) and the Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver, which can cover ABA for eligible children.

Additionally, Florida's autism insurance mandate, known as the Steven A. Geller Autism Coverage Act, requires certain private insurers to cover ABA therapy for children up to age 18, with limits. We'll help you verify your plan's benefits and connect you with providers who are in-network with your insurance, making the process smoother and less stressful.
