WHAT IS GAPP?
The Georgia Pediatric Program (GAPP) was implemented in August 2002. This
Children’s program is designed to serve eligible members based on medical
necessity determination(s) under the age of 21 years. Eligible members age out
of the GAPP program on their 21st birthday. Members must be medically fragile
with multiple systems diagnoses and require continuous skilled nursing care in
order to be considered for services in the Georgia Pediatric Program. GAPP
services provide approved services to medically fragile children in their homes
and communities and in a ‘medical’ daycare setting as an alternative to
placing children in a nursing care facility. Members served by the GAPP are
required to meet the same level of care for admission to a hospital or nursing
facility and must be Medicaid eligible.
