If you’ve ever been told “that service isn’t covered” or felt stuck trying to navigate Medicaid for your child, this series of episodes are for you.

In this first episode of the Florida Medicaid Waiver Explained of the No Limits Podcast, Laura Joslin breaks down the Medicaid Waiver Program — what it is, why it was created, and how it’s legally designed to support children with disabilities at home, in school, and in the community.

Laura shares this from both perspectives:

As a parent of two sons with cerebral palsy

And as a professional who has spent over 20 years working across therapy, education, and real-life functional support

In this episode, you’ll learn:

What the Medicaid Waiver is actually meant to do

Which diagnoses qualify under the waiver

The difference between the DD Waiver, iBudget, CDC+, and Medically Fragile Waiver

Why families get stuck on waiting lists or underfunded plans

How medically necessary services should align with real daily life

Why disconnects between doctors, schools, and therapy prevent waivers from working

This episode kicks off a multi-part series designed to help families understand and successfully negotiate a system that often feels overwhelming.
