In South Carolina, medical malpractice claims involving hospitals, physicians, and healthcare providers are handled through the state’s civil court system, and firms must be licensed to practice locally. South Carolina follows a modified comparative negligence rule with a 51% bar, meaning a claimant can recover damages as long as they are not more than half at fault for the incident.
