ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Florida

Florida's autism insurance mandate (the Steven A. Geller Autism Coverage Act) requires many private health plans to cover ABA therapy for children under 18. This means your commercial insurance may pay for all or most of the cost. Florida Medicaid also covers ABA therapy for eligible children, sometimes through waivers or the State Medicaid plan, depending on medical necessity.

Because coverage can vary by plan and eligibility, our free matching service will verify your insurance benefits with participating providers. We help each Captiva family navigate these options so you can focus on your child's progress.
