ABA insurance & Medicaid coverage in Florida

Florida's autism insurance mandate (the Steven A. Geller Autism Coverage Act) requires many large-group health plans to cover ABA therapy up to a certain age limit-often through age 18. This means many families in Umatilla can use their private insurance to help fund ABA services, significantly reducing out-of-pocket costs.

Florida Medicaid also covers ABA therapy for eligible children and adults, often through the iBudget waiver (Home and Community-Based Services) or the Statewide Medicaid Managed Care program. Our team can help you verify your coverage and connect with providers who accept your plan, including Medicaid.
