• Children (under age 19, via Partners for Healthy Children)≤ 213% FPLSC places all children 0-18 under one program, Partners for Healthy Children (PHC). The official 'Medicaid Eligibility Programs, Effective March 1, 2026' document states the limit as '213% FPL, $5,857.50/month for a family of four'; SCDHHS's public eligibility page states the base as '208% FPL ($5,720.00/month for a family of four)' — the ~5-point gap is the mandatory MAGI 5-percentage-point income disregard (start at 208%, add 5 points for the effective 213% ceiling). Meeting the income limit is not automatic eligibility — SCDHHS still determines it.
• Pregnant women and infants under age 1≤ 199% FPLOfficial limit up to 199% FPL ($5,472.50/month for a family of four; base 194% + the 5-percentage-point MAGI disregard). Coverage includes full maternity care; the official document states the mother's Medicaid coverage continues for 12 months after the pregnancy ends, and the infant is covered to age one. 🔴 This program requires 'a U.S. citizen or a Lawful Permanent Resident Alien' — a pregnant woman who does not meet that status should see the honest note above about 'prenatal care regardless of status (the CHIP unborn-child option)' and verify directly with SCDHHS (1-888-549-0820).
• Parents / caretaker relatives (must care for a dependent child)≤ 67% FPL🔴 SC's adult Medicaid limit is extremely low: a parent/caretaker relative must be raising a dependent child, with family income at most 67% FPL (official 'Eligibility Groups' document: $1,842.50/month for a family of four; base 62% + the 5-percentage-point MAGI disregard). This is far below the poverty line and among the lowest adult Medicaid limits in the nation. Adults not raising a dependent child do not fit this tier.
• Aged / blind / disabled (SSI-linked)≤ 100% FPLThe core aged/blind/disabled Medicaid tier is 100% FPL: the official 'Eligibility Groups' document states '$1,330/month per individual, or $1,804/month per couple.' SC also has several non-MAGI pathways (nursing-home/long-term care, working-disabled Buy-In, and others), each with its own, higher income/asset tests. ⚠️ This row is officially verified only for the 100% FPL core tier; the specific thresholds of the other non-MAGI pathways were not individually verified, so they are not listed (we do not invent them) — verify your situation with SCDHHS or SSA.
