ABA Coverage in Florida

Florida law requires many private health insurance plans to cover ABA therapy for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. The state's autism insurance mandate applies to large group plans, and coverage typically includes assessment, treatment, and parent training. For families with Medicaid, Florida's Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) benefit covers ABA therapy for eligible children under age 21 when it is medically necessary.

Additionally, Florida's early intervention system (for children from birth to age 3) includes ABA as a potential service. Our team can help you understand your specific policy and find providers who participate in your network, including those who accept Florida Medicaid.

Frequently asked questions

Does Florida Medicaid cover ABA therapy?

Yes, Florida Medicaid covers ABA therapy for eligible children under age 21 when it is determined medically necessary for the treatment of autism spectrum disorder.

Florida's autism insurance mandate (Florida Statutes 627.6686 and 641.31098) requires large group health plans to offer coverage for ABA therapy for children with autism, up to a certain benefit limit. Small group and individual plans may have different rules. We recommend checking your policy or contacting us to understand your specific coverage and find in-network providers.
