The county shells out $33 million a year to pay for medical care for inmates at its jails, but county Supervisor Gloria Molina will today propose the inmates pay part of the cost. Molina is seeking a $3 fee to be paid out of the inmate's county jail account for every visit made to the medical ward. Miguel Santana, Molina's assistant chief deputy, said the $3 will do little to raise revenue, but it may be a major disincentive for unnecessary visits to the jail medical ward. ``A lot of inmates fake illnesses when they are bored. This will help screen out those who are making up false illnesses,'' Santana said. Similar programs have been used in Kansas, Nevada, Maryland, Kentucky, New Jersey and Minnesota. In some of those states there has been a 50 percent decrease in doctor visits, Santana said. No inmate would be denied care if they lacked the $3 co-payment. Inmates have accounts at the jails, made up of the money on them when they were arrested and money deposited in their names by relatives and friends. - Daily News LAPD 1.
