SUMMARY: Jasper County, South Carolina, faces growing infrastructure challenges due to increased traffic on the South Carolina 462 bridge over Euhaw Creek at the Ridgeland town line. The bridge, burdened by cars, trucks, and buses from areas like Beaufort, Bluffton, and Hilton Head, has weight limits and narrow roadway warnings but remains congested and dangerous, with several fatal accidents reported. The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) plans to allocate approximately \$6.9 million to replace the bridge and is currently accepting public comments on the project until June 12. Some residents oppose the rapid development, advocating to “Save the Euhaw district.”

SUMMARY: Reality show couple Todd and Julie Chrisley, convicted in 2022 of bank and IRS fraud, received full pardons from President Trump, who personally informed their daughter, Savannah Chrisley. Savannah expressed overwhelming gratitude on social media, having led efforts for their commutation.

Dealing with denied health insurance claims

SUMMARY: If your health insurance denies a test, treatment, or medication your doctor recommends, don’t pay out of pocket immediately—you have the right to appeal. In 2023, nearly 20% of in-network claims and over a third of out-of-network claims on healthcare.gov were denied. First, call your insurer to check for simple errors. If denied for other reasons, request the reviewer’s explanation and file a formal appeal with your doctor’s supporting letter and documentation. Appeals can take 30 days or more, but you can request expedited review for urgent care. If denied again, insurers must explain the denial and appeal options, including independent review or legal help for Medicare claims. Always question surprise medical bills before paying.
