🚨 Did you know you can still get support—even if you don’t qualify for traditional Medicaid?
The Katie Beckett Deeming Waiver allows some children with significant medical or therapy needs to qualify for Medicaid based on the child’s needs, not family income.
This can help cover:
🧩 OT, PT, & Speech Therapy
🏥 Medical care & equipment
💙 Additional services that support your child’s development.
If this is the first time you’re hearing about it—you’re not alone. Many families aren’t told this option exists. We believe parents deserve to know every resource available to them!
