- Terre Marshall, MPH, CCHP-A; Gerry Riley; Veronica Madden, JD,
Massachusetts Department of Corrections
|
- Preparation of inmates for community reentry is essential to corrections
nationally. Many reentry initiatives have been implemented
in Massachusetts to address the compelling needs of inmates
as they return to the community. A pilot program to ensure
that inmates are registered for Medicaid benefits (MassHealth
in Massachusetts) at the time of their discharge has resulted in
significant enrollment for insurance benefits and medical services,
a positive outcome for individuals who were mostly uninsured
before incarceration.
|
- Educational Objectives
1. Identify the advantages to society, both public health and public
safety, for successful inmate reentry
2. Determine the medical and mental health needs of inmates and
their impact on successful discharge planning
3. Describe the process of inmate enrollment for Medicaid benefits

agencies? Annoyed that your budget gets ruined mopping
up preexisting problems? We were too and we did something
about it. This talk will comprehensively review a preincarceration
diversion program implemented six years ago to address these
problems in a practical and defensible manner. We will discuss the
development of our screening techniques that have been refined
using 250,000 patient encounters as data. We will also focus on
how to develop effective policies and procedures as well as methods
to work with arresting agencies to help them understand the
importance of appropriate front-porch triage in reducing liability
and expenditures for all agencies.
