The South Carolina Assistive Technology Agency Policy Manual provides a comprehensive operational framework for agencies delivering assistive technology (AT) services and supports individuals with disabilities, older adults, and others with functional limitations in South Carolina. This manual aligns with the regulations established by the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS), the South Carolina Department of Disabilities and Special Needs (DDSN), and the South Carolina Assistive Technology Program (SCATP). It also ensures compliance with applicable Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver programs such as the Community Supports Waiver, the ID/RD Waiver, and the Head and Spinal Cord Injury (HASCI) Waiver, as well as federal requirements under the Assistive Technology Act of 2004. The manual includes policies and procedures governing agency licensing and enrollment, participant eligibility and assessment, assistive technology evaluations, device selection and customization, procurement, delivery, user training and support, equipment maintenance and repair, staff qualifications and training, client rights and protections, safety protocols, documentation and billing, incident management, and quality assurance. It emphasizes person-centered planning and service delivery to ensure each individual receives appropriate and effective technology that enhances independence, communication, mobility, education, and daily living.
This manual serves as a foundational resource for assistive technology providers in South Carolina, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, compliant services that promote inclusion, autonomy, and improved quality of life for individuals across a variety of settings.
