Katie Beckett Playsets for Tennessee Families
Emerald Playsets proudly supports Tennessee families caring for children with disabilities or complex medical needs. We understand that safe, accessible, and durable outdoor play equipment is not just recreation - it can be an important part of physical therapy, sensory regulation, and overall quality of life.
For families utilizing the Katie Beckett Medicaid program, Emerald Playsets offers sturdy, high-quality playsets and provides itemized documentation that can be submitted for reimbursement when approved by your care team or program administrator.
Understanding Katie Beckett and Play Equipment
The Katie Beckett program allows children under 18 with disabilities or complex medical needs to qualify for Medicaid services based on the child's needs rather than parental income. This helps families access home and community-based care and equipment that may not be covered by private insurance.
In many cases, adaptive or therapeutic play equipment can be considered part of a child's supportive care plan when it contributes to physical activity, strength, coordination, sensory input, or safe outdoor engagement.
Why Families Choose Emerald Playsets
Families using Katie Beckett funds often need equipment that meets higher standards than typical residential playsets. Emerald Playsets are built with these needs in mind:
- Heavy-duty construction designed to safely support adult and child weight
- Durable materials suitable for frequent use and therapy-based activities
- Customizable configurations to support mobility, balance, and sensory needs
- Long-term safety and stability for supervised therapeutic play
Our playsets are commonly used by families seeking equipment that can be safely shared by children, caregivers, therapists, or aides during outdoor activities.
Documentation and Reimbursement Support
While Emerald Playsets does not approve or guarantee reimbursement, we support families by providing clear, itemized receipts and detailed product descriptions that are often required when submitting expenses for Katie Beckett consideration.
Our documentation can include:
- Itemized invoices with product breakdowns
- Descriptions emphasizing durability, safety, and intended use
Families should always consult their Katie Beckett caseworker or care coordinator to confirm eligibility and documentation requirements before purchase.
Our Experience with Special Needs Families
We work with families who have children with a wide range of needs, including mobility challenges, developmental delays, and sensory processing differences. We understand that parents are not just buying a playset - they are investing in something that must be safe, dependable, and appropriate for their child's daily life.
Our team is happy to answer questions, provide product details, and help families understand what information may be helpful when discussing equipment with their care team.
