TO AMEND THE SOUTH CAROLINA CODE OF LAWS 
BY ADDING SECTION 38-61-90 SO AS TO ESTABLISH THAT A DIRECT PRIMARY CARE 
AGREEMENT IS NOT A CONTRACT OF INSURANCE AND TO DEFINE TERMS.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION 1. Chapter 61, Title 38 of the 
S.C. Code is amended by adding:

 Section 
38-61-90. (A) A direct primary care 
agreement is not a contract of insurance in this State and is not subject to 
regulation by the Department of Insurance.

 (B) For the purposes of this section, a 
"direct primary care agreement" means a written agreement between a patient or 
their legal representative and a healthcare provider that:

 (1) allows either party to terminate 
the agreement in writing, without penalty or payment of a termination fee, at 
any time or after a notice period specified in the agreement not to exceed 
sixty days;

 (2) describes the healthcare services 
to be provided in exchange for payment of a periodic fee;

 (3) specifies the amount of the 
periodic fee and any additional fees to be paid by a third party;

 (4) allows the periodic fee and any 
additional fees to be paid by a third party;

 (5) prohibits the provider from 
charging or receiving additional compensation for healthcare services included 
in the periodic fee; and

 (6) conspicuously and prominently 
states that the agreement is not health insurance and does not meet any 
individual health insurance mandate required by federal law.

SECTION 
2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
