Concerns health care services provided to incarcerated individuals.

Summary

The bill removes any fees charged to inmates for medical, dental, surgical, hospital, or prescription services while they are incarcerated. It also requires the state or county to file claims with an inmate’s health insurer to recover those costs, using the reimbursements to offset the expense of providing care. The goal is to guarantee health care for all inmates regardless of insurance status.
