RBT HB 795 PASSED! Effective July 1, 2023, schools are now open to more RBTs providing services as Private Instructional Personnel (by removing the requirement of employment by a Medicaid Provider.) This was made possible due to the support of Rep. Tant and Sen. Hooper; and the advocacy efforts of parents and providers who contacted state leaders and the Governor via our VoterVoice online campaign. Thanks to all who helped this law become effective! FABA plans more work with the Dept of Education to improve RBT access.

AHCA Medicaid and eQHealth/Kepro: FABA continues closely monitoring developments regarding AHCA's implementation of current rules and future policy changes involving behavior analysis services, fee schedules, CPT billing codes, and related issues. These issues significantly impact the availability of ABA services for recipients and their families, plus service providers across Florida. FABA will continue pressing for improvements.
