‼️Attention Medicaid Families‼️

2/2/26 6pm update:

Reposting from another FB post shared by another GA private practive owner. Below is an email response a parent received in response to her inquiry to DCH:

Over 2800 Katie Beckett cases were closed in error by the Georgia Medicaid Management Information System (GAMMIS) on 1/31/2026 due to a glitch in the system. Your child’s case is one that was closed. GAMMIS is working diligently to get the cases re-opened. We have not been made aware of the exact time as to when the issue will be corrected. We appreciate your patience.

Thank you.

Please do not send any documents through this email with personal identification due to HIPAA federal, laws and regulation policies.

Best Regards,

THERAPY TIP TUESDAY
✨ Connection before everything. ✨

Modeling AAC matters—but not at the expense of the interaction.
During movement, transitions, and big-body moments, perfect AAC modeling isn’t always possible… and that’s okay.

What is always possible?
Connection. Engagement. Shared joy.

We keep devices accessible, model when we can, and remember that language grows best inside real relationships.

The quote from our therapist who captured this therapeutic interaction:
“ She [patient] made Ms. Abby [SLP] do this over and over and practiced a two syllable word every time. A skilled SLP also making sure device is available at all times even with Brielle’s “purse” full of toys. — And thanks Mrs. Anne [OT] for helping her find a way to hold all her items and be able access her device”

WE LOVE THIS TEAM. ♥️
