This mandate often includes coverage for diagnostic evaluations, ABA sessions, and parent training. Additionally, Florida's Medicaid program, known as Medicaid Managed Care, covers ABA therapy for eligible children under age 21 through the Early Periodic Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit.
