The Florida Assistive Technology Services Policy Manual provides a comprehensive framework for the provision of assistive technology (AT) devices and services to individuals with disabilities and chronic conditions throughout the state of Florida. This manual is aligned with the regulatory requirements of the Florida Department of Education’s Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (VR), the Florida Agency for Persons with Disabilities (APD), the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA), and incorporates federal guidelines under the Assistive Technology Act of 1998, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), and applicable Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Waiver programs. The manual outlines policies and procedures related to AT assessment, device selection and acquisition, customization, training and support, equipment maintenance and repairs, documentation, provider qualifications, client rights, funding coordination, and quality assurance. It is designed to ensure that assistive technology services are person-centered, functionally appropriate, and delivered in a timely and cost-effective manner to support independence, communication, mobility, and access to education, employment, and community living. As both an operational and compliance resource, the Florida Assistive Technology Services Policy Manual ensures that service providers meet all applicable state and federal requirements while promoting accessibility, inclusion, and enhanced quality of life for individuals using assistive technology.
