Who has health insurance, and who doesn't? What is the impact of being without it during COVID-19? In Part 1 of this two-part series, we'll look at where the gaps in health insurance are in SC and how those that are uninsured are being impacted by the pandemic. We'll also explore what public options are available for health insurance, and explain Medicaid expansion and why it was proposed. Details on speakers can be found here.

Part 2 of the Mind the Gap series will be on January 19 at 7:00 pm. Then we'll move beyond the basics and delve into health insurance challenges in SC. Our community experts will discuss the issues they see in the state and what legislative policies could provide a remedy. Details on Part 2 and those speakers can be found here.
