    Medical Care Provided in State Prisons – Study of the Costs Joint Commission on Health Care October 5, 2016 Meeting Stephen Weiss Senior Health Policy Analyst 2 Study Background • By letter to the JCHC Chair, Delegate Kory requested that the Commission: ▫ Study medical care provided in State prisons Specifically, study or evaluate the costs to the state for prisoner medical care provided by the Commonwealth while inmates are incarcerated, especially costs for pharmaceutical products • The Study was approved by the JCHC members during the May 26, 2016 work plan meeting 3 Virginia Department of Corrections (VADOC) Legal Obligation to Provide Health Care to Offenders By law VADOC is required to provide adequate health care to incarcerated offenders (U.S. Const. Amend. VIII; §53.1-32, Code of Virginia). Adequate health care was defined by the United States Supreme Court beginning in 1976 (Estelle v. Gamble, 429 U.S. 97, 97 S.Ct. 285). The definition encompasses the idea of providing incarcerated offenders with a “community standard” of care that includes a full range of services. The courts identified three rights to health care for incarcerated offenders: • The right to have access to care; • The right to have care that is ordered by a health care professional • The right to professional medical judgment* On July 12, 2012 a class action lawsuit was filed in federal court against VADOC over medical care at Fluvanna Correctional Center for Women. The lawsuit was settled through a Memorandum of Understanding on November 25, 2014. The settlement agreement was approved by the court in February 2016. The agreement includes the hiring of a compliance monitor and continued court supervision of the agreement.

  • Healthcare in Prison Fact Sheet
    Healthcare in Prison Prisoners should have the same access to healthcare as everyone else. This factsheet looks at what healthcare you should get if you are in prison. And at what to do if you are not getting the help you need. • You might go into prison because you have been given a prison sentence by a court. Or because you are waiting for a court hearing. This is sometimes called being ‘on remand'. • There are services that can help you while you are in prison, if you think you might need help for your mental health. • You have the same right to healthcare services as everyone else. Some prisons have a healthcare wing. You might go there if your health is very bad. • If you are too unwell to stay in prison, you could be transferred to hospital for specialist care under the Mental Health Act 1983. • Most prisons have 'Listeners'. You can talk to them if you need support. Or you can talk to the Samaritans. • There are services that can help you if you have problems with drugs or alcohol. • It is important that you get support when you are released from prison. The prison should help with this. This factsheet covers: 1. How common is mental illness in prisons? 2. What happens when I go into prison for the first time? 3. What help can I get? 4. Does the Care Programme Approach (CPA) apply in prison? 5. What other support is there for mental illness? 6. What support might I get if I use drugs or alcohol? 7.

  • Telemedicine in Corrections Cost-Effective, Safer Way to Provide Timely Healthcare to Prison Inmates
    Telemedicine in Corrections Cost-effective, Safer Way to Provide Timely Healthcare to Prison Inmates Transforming Healthcare Globally™ Telemedicine in Corrections The Challenge Healthcare for inmates of federal and states prisons in the United States is costly. Healthcare and corrections are growth areas in spending and compete for stagnant 7.7 Billion state revenues. According to Bureau of Justice Statistics, $7.7 billion of an overall $38.6 billion spent on for inmate healthcare corrections in 2011 (the latest year figures are available) went for inmate healthcare. In the state of Texas, known for its “wide-open spaces,” there are 31 state prison facilities, operated by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ). Although the TDCJ mission statement does not mention healthcare, a 1976 U.S. Supreme Court ruling (Estelle v. Gamble1) affirmed that all inmates are guaranteed access to basic healthcare services. The high court has long recognized that prisoners have a constitutional right to adequate health care through the Eighth Amendment’s ban on “cruel and unusual” punishment. In the wake of that decision, Texas set up a unique collaboration coordinated by the Correctional Managed Health Care Committee (CMHCC). This includes the TDCJ and two of the state’s leading health sciences centers: Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) and the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB). The primary purpose of this partnership is ensure that inmates at Texas prisons have access to quality healthcare while managing costs. Texas has one of the highest incarceration rates in the United States. Nearly 150,000 inmates are serving time in Texas prisons which – for the most part - are in outlying areas.

  • A Complete Guide to Correctional Telemedicine
    A Complete Guide to Correctional Telemedicine Providing Smarter Care and Controlling Costs n the United States, one group of citizens has a Iconstitutional right to healthcare: prisoners. In Estelle v. Gamble in 1976, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that inmates have the right to adequate medical care while incarcerated. The Court reasoned that deliberate indifference to an inmate’s illness violates the Eighth Amendment, which bans “the unnecessary and wanton infliction of pain” as punishment for crimes. Ever since, the billion-dollar corrections healthcare field has tried to provide inmate care through several models. Some prisons provide only basic outpatient services while others have specialized units for inmates requiring recurring care like kidney dialysis. While some facilities hire their own on-site clinicians, many contract with private companies or academic medical centers to provide Medical services. But regardless of which care model prisons adopt, most are embroiled in ongoing struggles. The American Civil Liberties Union and prisoner rights groups have filed lawsuits over the lack of timely medical and behavioral healthcare for inmates. Media stories about inmate deaths or neglect spark public outrage. What isn’t as public are the complex challenges that can make providing inmate care difficult, expensive and dangerous.

Wards Of The State: Care And Custody In A Pennsylvania Prison Abstract In this dissertation, I examine the challenges and contradictions as well as the expectations and aspirations involved in the provision of healthcare to inmates in a maximum-security prison in Pennsylvania. In 1976, the Supreme Court granted inmates a constitutional right to healthcare based on the notion that a failure to do so would constitute “cruel and unusual punishment.” Drawing on two years of ethnographic fieldwork from 2014-2016 in the prison’s medical unit with inmates, healthcare providers, and correctional staff, I demonstrate how the legal infrastructure built around this right to healthcare operates in practice and the myriad effects it has for those in state custody. Through traversing the scales of legal doctrine, privatized managed care, and collective historical memory, bringing these structural components to life in personal narratives and clinical interactions, I advance the notion that the physical space of the prison’s medical unit is a “ward of the state” – a space of care where the state itself is “made” through interactions among individuals who relay and enact the legal regulations on inmate healthcare.

  • When Prison Gets Old: Examining New Challenges Facing Elderly Prisoners in America
    When Prison Gets Old: Examining New Challenges Facing Elderly Prisoners In America by Benjamin Pomerance ―The degree of civilization in a society can be judged by entering its prisons.” -- Russian author Fyodor Dostoyevsky John H. Bunz will celebrate his ninety-second birthday in November.1 Described by observers as ―feeble-looking‖ after the death of his wife in 2010, he requires a walker to take even a couple of steps, and needs a wheelchair to travel any distance of significant length.2 Yet he still is in better health than George Sanges, age 73, who suffers from cerebral palsy, has sagging skin that is listed as ―sallow,‖ takes multiple medications twice a day, and has recently been rushed to the emergency room for heart problems.3 And both of them are far more alert than Leon Baham, a 71-year-old man who has dementia and goes into delusional bouts of yearning for the company of his now-dead wife.4 On the surface, all of these elderly, ailing men have extremely sympathetic profiles. All three need intensive medical care.5 All three have unique physical and emotional needs that are inherent to growing older.6 All three appear to be the type of ―grandfatherly‖ figures to whom our society is historically taught to show the utmost compassion and concern. Yet all three of these individuals also have a huge component of their lives which would naturally tend to turn all thoughts of sympathy and care upside-down. They are all prisoners.7 Not low-level criminals, either, but violent felony offenders with significant sentences.
