8. New Opportunities and Challenges for Correctional Health
Be ready for 2014: Partner with NextGen Healthcare
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) will provide new options for inmate healthcare while challenging
prisons, jails, and detention facilities to provide constitutionally sound healthcare. More than
30 million Americans will be eligible for healthcare insurance coverage beginning in 2014 and a
sizeable portion of that population will be adults in the justice system.
A fully integrated and interoperable EHR system, with functionality designed specifically for
the Corrections market, will be critical to meeting these new challenges. For example, nearly all
incarcerated people will be eligible for Medicaid or subsidized coverage at release or parole.
The ACA creates seamless continuity of coverage for this population for the first time.
