The bill establishes regulations regarding compensation for health care services provided to inmates in Indian River County detention centers. It defines key terms such as "air ambulance," "emergency medical services vehicle," and "health care provider," which includes various licensed medical professionals and facilities. The bill stipulates that compensation for health care providers who do not have a contract with the county is limited to 110% of the Medicare allowable rate, with an exception allowing up to 125% if the provider reported a negative operating margin in the previous year. Additionally, hospitals designated as trauma centers may receive compensation at 175% of the Medicare allowable rate for treating trauma alert victims if they lack a contract with the county.

Furthermore, the bill sets a similar compensation limit of 110% of the Medicare allowable rate for entities providing emergency medical transportation services to inmates without a contract. It also specifies that the act does not apply to charges for medical services provided at hospitals operated by Indian River County. The bill is set to take effect upon becoming law.
