COUNTY JAIL-MEDICAL EXPENSE

Summary
Amends the County Jail Act. Provides that if a prisoner in a county jail is (rather than already has been determined) eligible for medical assistance under the Illinois Public Aid Code at the time the person is initially detained pending trial, the cost of such services, to the extent such cost exceeds $500, shall be reimbursed by the Department of Healthcare and Family Services. Provides that "medical expenses relating to the arrestee" do not include those expenses incurred for medical care or treatment provided to the arrestee because of a self-inflicted injury.
