The South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS) integrated the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) Part C program - commonly known as BabyNet - with the Healthy Connections Medicaid program in July 2019.
BabyNet claims submitted to the BabyNet Reporting & Intervention Data Gathering Electronic System (BRIDGES) are processed and then adjudicated by the Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS).
BRIDGES will not contain payment information for claims. Claims-level remittance advice for providers enrolled in BabyNet are available in the SCDHHS web tool. Providers must use the remittance advice in the SCDHHS web tool to reconcile payment for their claims. Providers will no longer be emailed their remittance advice.
