What Is GAPP and Who Is Eligible?

Pediatric home nursing care in Georgia

The Georgia Pediatric Program (GAPP) is a Medicaid/Katie Beckett program designed to provide free or no-cost services to medically fragile children under the age of 21 who require skilled nursing care and personal care support in their homes. Eligibility for GAPP services is based on the child's medical needs, and families who qualify for Medicaid can apply for GAPP at any time.

Can I Qualify If I Do Not Meet the Medicaid Income Requirement?

Yes, you can still qualify through the Katie Beckett Waiver, also known as the Deeming Waiver. This waiver disregards parents' income and focuses solely on the child's needs. If the child qualifies for the Katie Beckett Waiver, they become eligible for services available under the regular state Medicaid plan.
