Therapeutic Child Care (TCC) Requirements

Effective with dates of service on or after July 1, 2017, the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS) will allow therapeutic child care (TCC) providers to fulfill the requirement of parallel work with the primary caregiver by rendering family psychotherapy twice per month in conjunction with the TCC service. Family psychotherapy services provided to meet this requirement must be rendered within the stated frequency limits as outlined in the Rehabilitative Behavioral Health Services manual.

Should you have any questions regarding this bulletin, please contact the SCDHHS Division of Behavioral Health at (803) 898-2565.
