I've been working on applying for the Aged and Disabled waver through Medicaid since the day we arrived back in Nebraska. Did you know that even though my son's disability has not changed, I had to apply in Nebraska initially, discontinue services when we moved, reapply in Arizona, discontinue services, reapply in Nebraska; all for the same Medicaid. Why do we do that to our military families? I hope to address this for other families.
Anyway, after being thrown between 5 different organizations under the umbrella of Medicaid, I was finally directed to the right place. I filled out the paperwork, waited many many weeks, but just received the phone call that he is being accepted again!!!!!!! The intake lady was so incredibly nice and I thanked her for helping us through this process. I may have even invited her over for wine!
Now we just wait for a caseworker to be assigned and a home visit to be scheduled!
