Katie Beckett is a Rhode Island Medical Assistance coverage group that allows for very disabled and/or medically complex children to be cared for at home instead of in a hospital or an institution. Children are eligible for Katie Beckett/Medical Assistance (Medicaid) based on their needs and their own income/resources, not those of their parents. Financial eligibility must be renewed every year.
