An Act amending Title 61 (Prisons and Parole) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in medical services, repealing provisions relating to the Medical Services Program and providing for copays and fees prohibited; and abrogating regulations.

SB 740 amends Pennsylvania law concerning medical services for inmates in state correctional institutions. The bill repeals the existing "Medical Services Program," which currently requires inmates to pay copays and fees for their medical care. Instead, it explicitly prohibits the Department of Corrections from requiring inmates to pay any copay or fee for medical services provided to them. This change directly affects inmates by eliminating their financial responsibility for medical treatment and also abrogates related existing regulations.
