[QUOTE="butterflydreams, post: 227647"] Thanks for asking! This was for the Katie Beckett waiver. It went pretty good. She asked a bunch of questions about what difficult child can do and can't do by himself. Stuff like hygiene, etc. She made a bunch of notes. She told me that it has been taking 1-2 months, so I should know by February. She was going to put in the request for medical records and hopefully would get them fairly quickly, I haven't heard from her, but with the holiday's who knows. She said they would only wait a couple of days before requesting again, otherwise they would let me know so I could bug them. I was given information about the waiver. I guess if he is approved, he will get medical, dental and vision. This of course would be secondary to my insurance from work. The only thing will be that the psychiatrist won't be covered, because she said that since he is out of network on my insurance that Medicaid won't cover him. (There is only 1 psychiatrist covered under my insurance and nobody at the psychiatric hospital where difficult child was had ever heard of her.) But all things considered, just having the prescription copays covered and other stuff too, and if he goes inpatient or even the dental and vision (which my insurance is awful) will be a big help. One of his medications is currently $120 per month, which if I don't pay that out, then paying the $150 psychiatrist appointment won't be bad. Anyway, time for fingers crossed and whatever other good luck things we can muster! Christy [/QUOTE]
