What Is GAPP?
GAPP (Georgia Pediatric Program) is a Medicaid program that provides skilled nursing and personal care services to medically fragile children under the age of 21 AT NO COST to the family. These services are provided in the comfort and safety of the child's home and community. Families who are eligible for Medicaid can apply for GAPP and approval is based on the child's medical needs.
What Is KATIE BECKETT?
The Katie Beckett Waiver or “Deeming Waiver” grants Medicaid Benefits to children under the age of 18 regardless of their parents' income. Qualification is based solely on the institutional level of care the child requires. If a child receives the Katie Beckett Waiver, they become eligible for all services available under the regular state Medicaid plan, including GAPP services.
