Katie Beckett Program
Katie
Beckett Program (KBP) – Tennessee’s Katie Beckett Program was launched in 2021
and is focused on our Pediatric community, age 18 or younger, with disabilities
and/or complex medical needs who qualify for the Medicaid Waiver. Eventa works
cohesively with TennCare and Blue Cross Blue Sheild of Tennessee to assist
Group A members in the program identified with compromised respiratory needs.
The pediatric population in the Katie Beckett Program, the majority being fragile and respiratory compromised, require support for the member and the caregivers.
We have been able to work closely with the families, medical support teams, DME’s and the payer to reduce hospital readmissions and ER utilization as the census continues to grow.

Eventa is not limited to supporting children with ventilators and tracheostomies. Eventa has successfully supported the pediatric community in all diagnosis that result in respiratory compromise such as Cerebral Palsy, Lennox Gastaut Syndrome, Down Syndrome, and many more!
