Katie Beckett Program Program Benefits
If the child meets the Katie Beckett Program eligibility criteria, which
is determined through the application review process, then the child
will receive a ForwardHealth Medicaid card. This card can be used to pay
for medically necessary services and equipment allowed under the
Wisconsin Medicaid program. Information about how to use the card and
covered services will be sent to parents with the approval letter.
All rules and benefits for card-covered services for the Wisconsin
Medicaid program apply to children who receive their card through the
Katie Beckett Program. The Division of Health Care Access and
Accountability administers the Medicaid program and is responsible for
ongoing assistance to families regarding coverage and benefit questions.
Their member services toll free number is (800) 362-3002.
