Georgia says many Elderly Disabled Waiver approvals were entered wrong in its Medicaid system

Georgia's Department of Community Health posted an update on July 27, 2026. It says a significant number of prior authorizations (approvals for services) for the Elderly Disabled Waiver Program were incorrectly entered in the state Medicaid system, GAMMIS. It says the majority have been processed and are available. If a provider cannot bill for authorized services, the case management agency for that member should review the prior authorization.
