Some Healthy Connections Medicaid-enrolled providers were mailed an IRS 1099-MISC form from the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS). The IRS 1099-MISC form providers received in the mail in January 2024 from SCDHHS contains an error. While the dollar amount of “Medical and health care payments” listed in block six of the IRS 1099-MISC form is correct for calendar year 2023, the form indicates it is for calendar year 2022.

Corrected forms are currently being printed and will be mailed in the next two business days. Providers should receive the replacement IRS 1099-MISC forms for 2023 within the next three to seven business days.

The incorrect form showing the 2022 date should be disregarded and not used to file taxes for the 2022 or 2023 calendar years. The error occurred during the process of printing the forms that were mailed to providers. The forms with the correct calendar year were submitted to the IRS.

If you have any questions, please contact the Provider Service Center at (888) 289-0709, extension four, option one. The Provider Service Center is open Monday through Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Thank you for your continued support of the South Carolina Healthy Connections Medicaid program.
