The South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS) is inviting the public to provide input on the South Carolina Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP). As part of a statewide rural health assessment, SCDHHS is gathering perspectives from anyone with a connection to rural health in South Carolina, including health care providers, health care professionals and residents.

About the Survey

The survey has two parts:

• Statewide rural health priorities. Share where you see the biggest gaps in rural health, where progress is being made and where RHTP should focus its funding.
• Project-specific input. For RHTP-funded projects where you have direct experience, share what has worked well, what to watch out for and any other input that could help shape South Carolina's approach.

The survey takes approximately five minutes to complete. All responses are anonymous. No individual responses will be shared or attributed.

The survey closes Oct. 2, 2026.

We encourage all health care providers, health care professionals and community members with a connection to rural health in South Carolina to complete the survey. The information gathered will help inform RHTP planning for years two through five.

For more information about the program, please visit the RHTP page of SCDHHS’ website. Questions about the RHTP survey should be directed to grants@scdhhs.gov. 

The RHTP is supported by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of a financial assistance award totaling $200,030,252.32 with 100% funded by CMS/HHS.
