The medically uninsured ("working poor") comprise roughly 10 percent of the citizens in South Carolina. These individuals are more likely than the insured to have chronic health conditions including hypertension, diabetes, and respiratory diseases. They appear to have poorer outcomes as as result of misallocation of health care resources from prevention to acute intervention. CIC is a novel program which represents an effort to coordinate the efficient utilization of existing resources to meet the non-emergent health care needs of the medically uninsured. The CIC program has enjoyed a successful beginning and, with the continued strong support of providers and sponsors, looks forward to exciting progress in the future.
