Inmates at the Jasper County Jail will not be refused medical treatment because of an inability to pay. Should an inmate have a zero balance in the inmate trust or commissary account, the transaction shall be carried on the books for a 30-day period. Should the inmate receive money within the 30-day period, the co-payment will be deducted from the inmate’s account. If the inmate receives no funds, at the end of 30 days an adjustment entry shall be made to negate the medical billing transaction. Within the 30-day period if the inmate receives moneys, the outstanding co-payments shall be deducted prior to a commissary order being processed. Co-payments for medical services shall be deducted prior to any moneys being released to the inmate for bonding or any other purposes. [Ord. 7-1-02A § 6; Ord. 4-3-95B § 6.]
