Frequently Asked Questions
Everything South Carolina providers ask before partnering with ParaMed.
Do you handle both Healthy Connections Medicaid fee-for-service and managed care billing?
Yes — we bill for both South Carolina Medicaid fee-for-service (through SCDHHS) and all SC Medicaid managed care organizations including Absolute Total Care (Centene), Molina Healthcare of South Carolina, and WellCare. We also handle the Healthy Connections Prime dual-eligible program and standard CHIP billing with full SCDHHS compliance.
How quickly can a South Carolina practice get fully onboarded?
Most South Carolina practices are fully onboarded and submitting clean claims within 7–14 business days. Our team handles all credentialing paperwork, EHR/PM system integration, and payer enrollment simultaneously — including SCDHHS enrollment — to minimize any disruption to your cash flow during the transition.
Does ParaMed handle South Carolina Workers' Compensation billing?
Yes — we handle South Carolina Workers' Compensation billing including required documentation, SC WC fee schedule compliance, utilization management responses, and dispute resolution. Many SC providers recoup significant previously written-off WC revenue when they switch to ParaMed due to our thorough claim follow-up process.
