Summary

Implements the South Carolina SSI State Supplement (Optional State Supplementation / OSS) program. Replaces #7344 (rebased from upstream/main to resolve conflicts).

Closes #7343

SC's OSS program supplements the income of eligible individuals residing in licensed Community Residential Care Facilities (CRCFs). The program:

  • Is available only to individuals in CRCFs (not community residents or nursing home residents)
  • Covers both SSI recipients and non-SSI individuals who meet SSA criteria for aged/blind/disabled
  • Provides substantial facility payment support (up to $1,719/month to the facility as of 2026)
  • Is state-administered by SCDHHS (not federally administered by SSA)

Regulatory authority

  • S.C. Code Regs. 126-910 -- Program Definitions
  • S.C. Code Regs. 126-920 -- Eligibility
  • SCDHHS MB# 26-001 (Jan 8, 2026) -- Current payment amounts

Benefit calculation

OSS = max(0, NIL - ssi_countable_income - ssi)

Files added/modified

  • 4 parameter files (net income limit, max facility payment, PNA tiers)
  • 3 variable files (eligibility, benefit amount, PNA)
  • 1 new input variable (is_in_residential_care_facility)
  • 4 test files (31 test cases)
  • Modified spm_unit_benefits.py and household_state_benefits.yaml

Test plan

  • All YAML tests written with step-by-step calculation comments
  • make format passes
  • CI passes on GitHub
