Counselor #513 was out sick at the time of the interview but was familiar with Resident #126's case. ACM
#510 stated Resident #126 had expressed desire to move back to SC back in June or July of 2024 and the

move back to SC. Resident #126 was able to pay for his plane ticket and the associated transportation and
ADA supervision fees with his personal account. Abuse Counselor #513 had previously spoken to a local

receive Medicaid benefits, the person needs to be physically present and have a permanent address in the
state of SC. If the person was receiving benefits in another state, they would need to request a termination
letter and provide proof benefits are no longer being received in the previous state. SC Medicaid
Representative #511 stated if a person was trying to establish benefits in SC, they would need to be
physically present in the state. If individuals are unable to care for themselves, they could go to a local
hospital to initiate the process to transfer Medicaid benefits.
Phone interview on 02/11/25 at 10:56 A.M. with Resident #126's father confirmed he had spoken with

picked up Resident #126 at the airport on 02/01/25 and had taken him to a local hospital where he
