Four SCDHHS projects · one compliance backbone
The regulatory depth behind four SCDHHS initiatives—connecting federal rules, South Carolina authority, delivery practice, and proof of compliance.
The M9 cutover added an explicit version, a citation line, and this change summary. No standards content changed.
Each project closes a different seam in the same system: who may participate, how the participant is identified, how eligibility is renewed, and how obligations are translated into accountable work.
