Thumbnail preview ANNOTATION: This report evaluates the impacts resulting from North Carolina’s Senate Bill 897 on the Department of Correction’s expenditures for inmate medical services provided outside of its facilities. Senate Bill 897 is separated into the following sections: the 70% Mandate; the 5% Mandate; the Medicaid Mandate; other cost containment methods not covered by this bill; and reporting. The Department’s budget was reduced by $20.5 million in anticipation of cost savings resulting from Senate Bill 897. Unfortunately, cost savings will not result in meeting the budget reduction.
