South Carolina healthcare providers no longer need permission from the state government to offer new services, expand facilities, or invest in tech. The repeal of the state's certificate of need law eliminates hospital regulations that stifled innovation.
South Carolina healthcare providers no longer have to seek permission from the state government to offer new services, expand facilities, or invest in technology.
South Carolina’s repeal, though, highlights criticism of this approach, and it could be an inspiration to other states considering lifting certificate of need laws, particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic in states where more significant percentages of the population live in rural areas. According to Mercatus, rural states with certificate of need laws have 13% fewer rural hospitals than those with such laws and 30% fewer hospitals overall for every 100,000 residents. A separate study found states with certificate of need laws have 99 fewer hospital beds per 100,000 people than those states without.
