What is the TEFRA/Katie Beckett Medicaid Waiver, and how does it work?

Join us for a hands-on session where we will understand the use of the Deeming Waiver to access Medicaid benefits for minors.

During the webinar, we will:

• Explain how the Deeming Waiver works and its role in Medicaid eligibility for minors.
• Walk through a sample application as a practical guide, offering insights into best practices and common pitfalls to avoid.

This session is designed to empower parents, caregivers, and advocates with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the application process with confidence.

Established in 1982 under the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act/TEFRA (P.L. 97-248), the Katie Beckett Medicaid Program (KB), permits the state to ignore family income for certain children who are disabled.
