Nebraska’s Medically Handicapped Children’s Program coordinates specialty care and pays authorized medical services for eligible residents from birth through age 20. The official program page expressly includes neoplasms such as leukemia and lymphoma, so pediatric B-ALL is within the published diagnosis scope. Treatment funding is limited to prior-authorized specialty care connected to the eligible diagnosis and an active individual medical treatment plan, while routine general medical care is excluded. A family may apply at any time by email, fax, mail, or through a Nebraska DHHS office.
