This bill establishes specific compensation limits for health care providers and emergency medical transportation entities that serve inmates in Jefferson County detention centers, particularly when these providers do not have a contract with the county. It defines "health care provider" and "emergency medical transportation services," detailing the types of entities that fall under these categories. The bill stipulates that compensation for medical services may not exceed 110% of the Medicare allowable rate, with an exception allowing up to 125% for providers that report a negative operating margin to the Agency for Health Care Administration.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that compensation for emergency medical transportation services is similarly capped at 110% of the Medicare allowable rate for non-contracted entities. It explicitly states that the provisions of this act do not apply to charges for medical services provided at hospitals operated by Jefferson County. The act is set to take effect upon becoming law.
