About SC Healthy Connections Medicaid
South Carolina has NOT expanded Medicaid under the ACA. Coverage is limited to children, pregnant women, elderly, and disabled individuals. Adults without children or a qualifying condition may fall into the "coverage gap" — earning too much for Medicaid but too little for marketplace subsidies.
