If you are a South Carolina resident looking for an affordable health insurance plan, WellPath may be a good option. A Coventry Health Care company, WellPath is publically traded on the New York Stock Exchange and is financially sound.

WellPath currently operates in over 20 states. The health insurance carrier has a respectable presence in South Carolina, particularly along the I-26 corridor.

I've noticed that many of the plans offered by WellPath are priced very competitively. In particular, their South Carolina health savings account plans (HSA) pricing is significantly lower than much of the competition. For those South Carolina residents feeling the current economic pinch, I would recommend looking at WellPath as an option.

*Keep in mind that WellPath is a regional health insurance carrier, so if you travel outside of South Carolina or the twenty other states they currently service often you may want to consider a carrier that has a strong national provider network like Carolina Care Plan or BlueCross and BlueShield of South Carolina.
