This bill mandates the Commissioner of Corrections, in collaboration with the Department of Health and Human Services, to conduct a comprehensive study on the quality of health care services provided in correctional facilities. The study aims to identify any gaps in these services and will evaluate several key areas, including the average response and resolution times for health-related concerns raised by incarcerated individuals, the frequency of medical staff visits for pain management and overall patient care, and any identifiable deficiencies in the quality of medical services along with the reasons for these gaps.

The findings from this study are to be compiled into a written report, which the commissioner must submit to the Governor and the Legislature within one year of the bill's effective date. This report will include the study's findings and any recommendations for legislative action to improve health care services in correctional facilities. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
