A guide to Medicaid Waiver Programs in Georgia is now available. 

Waiver programs help people who are elderly or have disabilities and need help to live in their home or community instead of an institution such as a nursing home or ICF-MR.

On July 14, 2022, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services notified DCH of its approval for 1915(c) Comprehensive Supports Waiver renewal for individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. The waiver has been approved for a five-year period effective April 1, 2021. For details about this waiver renewal, Download this pdf file. click here .
