The South Carolina Specialized Therapies Agency Policy Manual provides a comprehensive operational framework for agencies delivering specialized therapeutic services to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), traumatic brain or spinal cord injuries, chronic conditions, and other functional or behavioral support needs in South Carolina. This manual aligns with the regulations established by the South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS), the Department of Disabilities and Special Needs (DDSN), and other applicable oversight agencies. It ensures compliance with Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver programs, including the ID/RD Waiver, Community Supports Waiver, and the Head and Spinal Cord Injury (HASCI) Waiver. The manual includes policies and procedures governing agency enrollment and credentialing, participant eligibility and referrals, individualized assessment and treatment planning, delivery of therapies such as occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech-language pathology, behavioral therapy (including ABA), and other specialized modalities. It also outlines requirements for staff qualifications and licensure, service documentation and billing, client rights and protections, emergency and safety protocols, incident reporting, and quality assurance. This manual serves as a foundational resource for specialized therapy providers in South Carolina, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, compliant, and person-centered therapeutic services that support improved function, development, communication, behavior, and overall well-being.
