CD CORR-REPORT HOSPICE CARE

Summary

The bill amends the Unified Code of Corrections so the Department of Corrections must post a yearly report on its website detailing hospice and palliative care in prisons. It includes demographic information, program statistics, policies, and the cost of end‑of‑life care for inmates who died of natural causes without hospice. The goal is to give lawmakers and the public clearer insight into how aging inmates are cared for at the end of life.
