I Am Eligible For Medicaid In South Carolina;
Will I Be Eligible In North Carolina Also?

An individual who is eligible in South Carolina is Not Necessarily eligible if he or she moves to North Carolina, Georgia, etc. Because the state and federal governments share the cost of the Medicaid program, states are given some flexibility in providing coverage to its needy citizens.

Medical Services In Another State

As long as the provider is not more that 25 miles from the South Carolina state line and agrees to use your card.

If you are in another state and need emergency care, be sure to show your card to the doctor or hospital. There are instructions on the back of your card for out-of-state providers.
