The bill establishes regulations regarding compensation for health care services provided to inmates in Polk 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 without a contract with Polk County cannot exceed 110% of the Medicare allowable rate, while those reporting a negative operating margin may receive up to 125%. Additionally, compensation for emergency medical transportation services is similarly capped at 110% of the Medicare allowable rate if the provider lacks a contract with the county.

Furthermore, the bill clarifies that it does not apply to charges for medical services rendered at hospitals operated by Polk County. The act is set to take effect upon becoming law, ensuring that the compensation structure for inmate health care services is both defined and limited to specific financial parameters.
