Redirections

Redirection services are time-limited intensive community-based services that address the multiple determinants of behavioral disorders in juvenile offenders. The goal of these services is to “redirect” recipients from juvenile justice facilities to more effective, family-focused, evidence-based treatment options by receiving treatment services in the home and the community.

Medicaid reimburses for the following services:

  • Case coordination
  • Family therapy
  • Group therapy
  • Individual therapy
  • Therapeutic Support
  • Twenty-four hour crisis therapeutic support

Redirection Services is a fee-for-service program and is not offered by health plans serving Medicaid enrollees.

Eligibility

Medicaid recipients who meet the following criteria are eligible to enroll in the Redirection Services program:

  • 18 years old or younger
  • Have an emotional disturbance as defined in Chapter 394, F.S.
