Caring for a medically fragile child is a full-time job. In Georgia, some parents and family members may be eligible to get paid for the care they already provide at home.

At Miralta Home Care, we help families across Atlanta, Fulton, Gwinnett, Cobb, and surrounding counties apply for GAPP every day. This guide breaks down exactly how to get started, step by step.

The Georgia Pediatric Program (GAPP) is a Medicaid-funded service that provides free in-home skilled nursing or personal care to medically fragile children under 21.

GAPP services are 100% covered by Georgia Medicaid.
There are no out-of-pocket costs to eligible families — even for multiple hours of daily care.
