DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND
HUMAN SERVICES
Selected Services
The South Carolina Department of Health and Human
Services (SCDHHS) was created in 1984 to administer
the Medicaid program (Title XIX of the Social Security
Act). Medicaid is South Carolina's aid program by which
the federal and state governments share the cost of
providing medical care for needy persons who have low
income.
• Medicaid
• Transportation – to medical appointments
for Medicaid recipients
• Partners for Healthy Children
MEDICAID - OCWI
(Optional Coverage for Women and Infants)
This is a program to help pay the medical bills for
pregnant women and babies with low family income.
The types of medical services that will be covered are:
• Doctor visits
• Hospital Care
• Medical transportation
• Prescription Drugs
• Family Planning Services
• Emergency Room Services
All medical services must be necessary and some
services are limited.
When should you apply If you are pregnant, you
should apply as soon as you learn that you are pregnant.
If you are applying for children’s services, you should
apply as soon as possible after the child’s birth
Where should you apply You may apply for Medicaid
at your county Department of Health and Human Services
(DHHS). Check the services listed under your county of
residence in this directory for more information.
MEDICAID - OCWI

the following information:

ADOPTION

residence in this directory. At licensed adoption
agencies, you will receive helpful, supportive
services. You will be counseled about what is
best for you, your baby and your family. You may
have a part in the adoptive parent/family selection
process. The final decision about adoption is yours
to make, and the information you share with an
agency is confidential.
At the DSS Division of Adoption Services,
counseling services are free and may include
the baby’s father. You may receive help with
hospital expenses and maternity home fees. Your
questions will be answered.
