Grant Overview
Target Outcomes for Local Health Coordination Networks in South Carolina
South Carolina sets measurable targets for reducing preventable hospitalizations in its 19 rural counties by 12 percent over three years through coordinated referral systems. These counties lie primarily in the Lowcountry and Upstate regions where primary care physician ratios average 1:3,800.
Why These Outcomes Matter in South Carolina
The state’s population density drops sharply outside the Interstate 85 and 26 corridors, leaving residents in counties such as Allendale and McCormick with average travel times of 47 minutes to the nearest hospital. Economic reliance on agriculture and manufacturing creates shift-work patterns that conflict with standard clinic hours. An aging demographicwith 22 percent of rural residents over age 65amplifies demand for chronic disease management that crosses multiple providers.
Implementation Approach in South Carolina
Networks must establish a shared electronic referral platform compatible with the state’s Health Information Exchange and designate a single care coordinator per three counties. Proposals require baseline data from the South Carolina Office of Rural Health showing current gaps in diabetes and hypertension follow-up rates. Unlike Georgia or North Carolina applications, South Carolina reviewers require explicit integration with the state’s 340B pharmacy networks located inside rural hospitals to secure medication access.
