Is your child medically fragile or living with a disability?
Does your child have Medicaid?
Fill out the form below and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.
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.
The Katie Beckett Waiver or "Deeming Waiver" grants Medicaid Benefits to children under the age of 18 regardless of their parents' income. Qualification for the Katie Beckett Waiver 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.
This program is not a waiver service, and your child will be eligible to receive services immediately following service approval from GAPP.
Intake and evaluation typically takes up to 30 days for service approval.
Parents are involved with the development of their child’s service plan of treatment along with any service goals.
