In this presentation about Florida Medicaid benefits, participants will get an overview on the application process, eligibility for special cases and populations, other medical service providers, how to navigate the denial process, and resources for families in Florida.

This presentation is a collaboration between Family Network on Disabilities and Early Steps Space Coast.

Family S.T.A.R. supports families with children and youth from birth to age 26 throughout the state who have special healthcare needs, complex medical conditions, developmental disabilities, and mental health challenges, along with the professionals, providers, and educators who serve them. Our services include Support, Training and Education, Assistance, and Resources and are offered at no charge. Family S.T.A.R. is Florida’s Family to Family Health Information Center (F2FHIC), funded by the U.S. Dept. of Health, under the Health Resources Services Administration.

Space Coast Early Steps provides services to infants and toddlers, birth to age three, with development disabilities or delays. We help families build upon their child’s individual strengths and provide support to meet the child’s unique needs. Services are designed to support children in their communities, where they live, learn and play.
