The Medically Fragile Waiver (MFW) serves people who have been diagnosed with a medically fragile condition before reaching the age of twenty-two (22) and who have a developmental disability or delay, or who are at risk of developmental delay. A medically fragile condition is defined as a chronic physical condition which results in a prolonged dependency on medical care for which daily skilled nursing intervention is medically necessary. Services provided through the MFW are nurse case management, home health care, respite care, private duty nursing, physical, occupational and speech therapies, behavior support consultation, nutritional counseling and specialized medical equipment and supplies.
