Medicaid is restarting Eligibility reviews. CareSouth Carolina is here to help

CareSouth Carolina’s Family Support Services and Community Outreach Team is ready to assist in helping with Medicaid re-enrollment.

Medicaid is restarting Eligibility reviews, and this means that those who are eligible need to ensure their information is up-to-date to not risk a gap in Medicaid or CHIP coverage.

To ensure that you don’t have a gap in coverage, please make sure to follow these three steps:

1. Make sure you contact information is up-to-date
2. Check your mail for a letter
3. Complete your renewal form (if you get one)

You can check to see if your information is up-to-date by visiting https://tools.apply.scdhhs.gov/quick-tools/changeofaddress.

If you need assistance in changing your address or signing up for Medicaid, CareSouth Carolina has Family Support Services Benefit Counselors who are available to assist. 

Please call 866-498-0399 and a CareSouth Carolina representative will be happy to help you.
