Compensation for Health Care Services for Inmates in Lake County
Chapter No. 2026-194
Summary
The law caps how much hospitals, doctors, and emergency transport services can be paid for caring for inmates in Lake County detention centers when they don’t have a county contract. Payments are limited to 110% of Medicare rates, with higher caps for trauma‑center hospitals and for providers that reported a loss last year. The rule is meant to control costs while still ensuring medical care for incarcerated people.
