State program in South Carolina

Medically Indigent Assistance Program (S.C. Code 44-6-150)

A state program run by the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services with each county. It can sponsor a hospital stay (inpatient care only) for South Carolina residents with very low income. A general hospital must admit a sponsored patient. At or below 100% of the federal poverty level, the program may fully sponsor the stay. Between 100% and 200%, it may partly sponsor it, and the hospital may ask for a sliding copayment. The asset limits are strict, including $500 in cash and bank accounts. You must apply for Medicaid first if you might qualify. It does not cover ER visits that do not lead to admission, or outpatient care. Because of these limits, this site does not use it as a floor for every hospital bill.

Income levels in the program are free up to 100%, discount up to 200% of poverty level.

Applies to inpatient stays at South Carolina general hospitals for state residents found eligible by their county.

Ask the hospital's financial counselor about the Medically Indigent Assistance Program (MIAP). For a planned stay, apply before admission with your county's MIAP office. For an emergency admission, the hospital takes your application and sends it to your county. You can apply up to one year after discharge in some cases.

The program is authorized to sponsor inpatient hospital care for which hospitals shall receive no reimbursement.
