“…As part of the larger parent study, the authors developed a systematic search and data extraction template to abstract key elements from the Medicaid applications (Keim‐Malpass, Constantoulakis, et al, 2019 ; Keim‐Malpass, Letzkus, et al, 2019 ). A systematic extraction template was used to classify the elements included in the waivers, including dollars allocated per individual, time an individual can remain on the waiver, use of cost containment strategies (capitation or individual cost limits), the possibility that a child could transition as an adult within the same waiver without a reapplication, range of pediatric ages covered, and the scope of the service type allowed on the waiver (Keim‐Malpass, Constantoulakis, et al, 2019 ; Keim‐Malpass, Letzkus, et al, 2019 ). Scope of coverage could be further defined as the following: (1) case management/care coordination; (2) education services offered to family or school about the care of the child; (3) environmental/home/vehicle modifications; (4) specialized equipment/supplies; (5) counseling/psychological support/behavioral support for the child; (6) caregiver/parental/family counseling or support; (7) personal care/day habilitation; (8) respite; (9) therapies (physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech, vision, auditory); (10) skilled nursing/private duty nursing; (11) treatment (pharmaceutical, dietary, dental services) (Keim‐Malpass, Constantoulakis, et al, 2019 ).…”
