Executive Summary
The Plata v. Brown federal court class action lawsuit resulted in the United States District Court for the
Northern District of California (Court) appointing a federal Receiver to raise medical care standards,
manage the delivery of medical care, and develop a sustainable system that provides constitutionally
adequate medical care to inmates at California’s 33 adult correctional institutions. At the request of the
federal Court and the Court-appointed Receiver, and
authorized by California Penal Code section 6126, in 2007
the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) developed a Cycle 3 Key Statistics

California Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation (CDCR). This report compares differences in
trends from the first, second, and third reporting cycles. Medical inspection scores are compared based
on the institution’s overall score from 20 distinct medical components, as well as across five general
medical categories.
Unlike the OIG’s individual medical inspection reports, this comprehensive report puts the institutions’
scores into a qualitative context. It does so by comparing the institutions’ average and individual scores
to the Receiver’s scoring criteria for three levels of adherence to policies and procedures. The OIG’s
published inspection reports contain an overall percentage score as well as percentage scores for
component areas for each of the 33 adult institutions. The Receiver currently applies the following
scoring criteria to measure each institution’s adherence to medical policies and procedures:
• More than 85 percent: High Adherence
Cycle 3 Key Statistics • 75 to 85 percent: Moderate Adherence
Average Scores per Medical Category
• Less than 75 percent: Low Adherence

Court.

Results by Medical Component
The component analysis compares the weighted inspection scores of all 33 institutions in each of the
20 component areas. This perspective provides a system-wide context, comparing compliance with
health care policies and procedures among institutions, and provides information about each
institution’s performance in specific component areas. According to the Receiver’s scoring criteria, all
but one of the 33 institutions improved their overall medical care scores in cycle 3 compared to
cycle 2. Overall scores and individual component scores are published in each institution’s medical
inspection report and summarized in Appendix B of this report. An institution’s adherence to policies
and procedures is measured based on a series of medical care questions and point values assessed on
total points possible for each question.
In the May 2011 cycle 1 analysis report, only 8 of the 33

Results by General Medical Category
For the category analysis, this report examines how the disparate components of medical care function
together to deliver health care at California’s 33 adult institutions. Ninety-one questions were identified
and sorted into five general categories of medical care. The five medical categories which offer a
broader perspective on the delivery of medical care to inmates are: 1) Medication Management,
2) Access to Providers and Services, 3) Primary Care Provider Responsibilities, 4) Continuity of Care,
and 5) Nurse Responsibilities.
As illustrated in Chart 2, the resulting scores for each of the five categories increased to the high
adherence level during cycle 3. In contrast, in cycle 2, all five categories scores were in the moderate
adherence level, while cycle 1 scores ranged from the moderate to low adherence level.

In cycle 2, only 25 of the 33 institutions scored in the
moderate adherence level, and in cycle 1, only 8 institutions were in the moderate adherence level with
the remaining 25 institutions scoring in the low adherence level.
The cycle 3 overall medical category scores also improved. The average cycle 3 score for all five
categories was in the high adherence level. In contrast, in cycle 2 all five categories were in the
moderate adherence level, and in cycle 1, two categories were in the moderate adherence level, while
three categories were in the low adherence level.
These scores indicate that the Receiver and CDCR are improving their adherence to their medical
policies and procedures.

OIG Medical Inspection Program
The OIG conducts consistently applied assessments of inmate medical care delivery and CDCR’s
compliance with their health care policies and procedures at all 33 institutions, and presents
independent and comparable results. The medical inspections identify instances of noncompliance with
CDCR medical policies and procedures, and assess whether the care meets medical community
standards of care if there is no policy in place. However, the OIG does not attempt to identify the
causes for noncompliance nor recommend remedies for specific instances of inadequacy. The OIG
inspection tool was designed, in collaboration with key stakeholders, to present an objective and
consistent assessment of each institution’s health care delivery system. The inspection scores may be
used by the institutions, CDCR, the Receiver, the plaintiff’s counsel, and the Court to assist in
determining what the constitutional level of medical care should be, whether the constitutional level of
inmate medical care has been achieved, and to identify areas that must be improved to meet the
mandated level of care.
In 2007, the OIG developed a medical inspection program to assess CDCR’s compliance with policies
and procedures for providing medical care at California adult institutions. In designing the program,
the OIG obtained and reviewed:
• CDCR’s policies and procedures
• Relevant Court orders
• Guidelines developed by CDCR’s Quality Medical Assurance Team
• Guidelines and standards developed by the American Correctional Association and by the
National Commission on Correctional Health Care
• Professional literature on correctional medical care and medical community standards of care
• Input from clinical experts, the Court, the Receiver’s office, CDCR, and plaintiffs’ counsel
Based on this research, an inspection program was established that contains up to 151 questions
covering 20 essential components of medical care delivery.1 The inspection team consists of
physicians, registered nurses, deputy inspectors general, and analysts. The inspection tool allows for a
broadly scoped and consistent method of examining medical care at correctional institutions.
For each of the 20 components of prison health care, questions were created with “yes” or “no”
answers designed to gauge performance. In conjunction with clinical experts, a weighting system was
created that factors in the relative importance of each component as well as considers the relative
importance of questions within a component. This weighting ensures that components that pose the
greatest medical risk to the inmate-patient are given more weight than those that pose less risk.
For example, a high number of possible points were assigned to the chronic care component because
inadequate care of inmates with chronic conditions poses the most significant risk of all the
components. Conversely, proportionately fewer points were assigned to all other components.
Component definitions are listed in Appendix A.
1Cycle 3 of medical inspections has 151 questions. However, one question merely displays staffing level information
reported by the institution and is not scored.

Office of the Inspector General State of California
All parties to the Plata lawsuit agreed that the OIG should primarily measure institutions’ compliance
with CDCR medical policies and procedures. By agreement with the Court and the Receiver, the
inspections do not conclude whether an institution has passed or failed an inspection. Instead, each
institution’s percentage of compliance with CDCR medical policies and procedures is reported, and in
some instances, compliance is reported based on selected medical community standards. Accordingly,
the inspection methods employed do not attempt to measure the quality of care delivered to inmate-
patients.
In performing the inspections, random samples of inmates receiving or requiring specific medical
services are identified. The medical file for each inmate in the sample is then reviewed to determine if
the medical care provided meets established criteria. For these samples, the inspection program
assumes that if an institution’s medical staff does not document an event in an inmate’s unit health
record, the event in question did not happen. For example, if an inmate’s record does not show that the
inmate received his medication on a specified date, it is assumed that the inmate did not receive the
medication. While it is possible that the inmate received his medications and the staff neglected to
document the event, it cannot be assumed that appropriate care was provided. Lack of proper
documentation poses another potential problem.
In addition to the review of medical files, medical appeal summaries, nursing policies and procedures,
medical drill and emergency summaries, Quality Management Committee minutes, Emergency Medical
Response Review Committee minutes, inmate transfer envelopes, and assorted manual logs or tracking
worksheets related to medical care delivery are reviewed. Also, staff in their day-to-day delivery of
medical care and certain administrative functions are observed at each institution. Although data is
reported regarding each institution’s staffing levels, the data, adequacy of the staffing levels, or reasons
for vacancies are not analyzed. Further, the OIG inspection program does not evaluate the adequacy of
each institution’s health care budget or facility, nor does it review internal CDCR or Receiver audit
reports.
This report does not assess the provision of dental care or mental health services in institutions, nor
does it assess the care provided in licensed hospitals or correctional treatment centers, which are
subject to inspection and oversight by other regulatory agencies.

Objectives, Scope, and Methodology
In September 2008, the OIG began the first of its statewide medical inspections, and in May 2011,
published its comparison report of the first cycle of inspections of the 33 institutions. In July 2012, the
comparative summary and analysis report of the first and second medical inspection cycles was
published. This report denotes the end of the third cycle of medical inspections and provides a
comparative summary and analysis between the first, second, and third cycles. The report includes data
from inspections performed at the state's 33 adult institutions. The institutions are listed alphabetically
below:
• Avenal State Prison (ASP) • Ironwood State Prison (ISP)
• Calipatria State Prison (CAL) • Kern Valley State Prison (KVSP)
• California Correctional Center (CCC) • California State Prison, Los Angeles County (LAC)
• California Correctional Institution (CCI) • Mule Creek State Prison (MCSP)
• Central California Women’s Facility (CCWF) • North Kern State Prison (NKSP)
• California State Prison, Centinela (CEN) • Pelican Bay State Prison (PBSP)
• California Institution for Men (CIM) • Pleasant Valley State Prison (PVSP)
• California Institution for Women (CIW) • R. J. Donovan Correctional Facility (RJD)
• California Men's Colony (CMC) • California State Prison, Sacramento (SAC)
• California Medical Facility (CMF) • California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and
• California State Prison, Corcoran (COR) State Prison, Corcoran (SATF)
• California Rehabilitation Center (CRC) • Sierra Conservation Center (SCC)
• Correctional Training Facility (CTF) • California State Prison, Solano (SOL)
• Chuckawalla Valley State Prison (CVSP) • San Quentin State Prison (SQ)
• Deuel Vocational Institution (DVI) • Salinas Valley State Prison (SVSP)
• Folsom State Prison (FSP) • Valley State Prison for Women (VSPW)2
• High Desert State Prison (HDSP) • Wasco State Prison (WSP)
The objective in this third report is to compare and contrast the significant trends and variations in data
between the first, second, and third cycles, which will hopefully assist the Receiver and CDCR in their
efforts toward continuous improvement in adherence to policies and procedures. 3

Overall Scores and Medical Component Scores
All 33 institutions’ overall scores met or exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for moderate
adherence in cycle 3. In fact, 25 institutions had scores higher than 85 percent, the score for high
adherence. As shown in charts 3A, 3B, and 3C, the cycle 3 average score for the 33 institutions was
87 percent; a 7.4 percentage point improvement over the 79.6 percent average score for cycle 2 and a
15.1 percentage point improvement over the cycle 1 average score of 71.9 percent. For cycle 3, the
three highest scores were Folsom State Prison (FSP) with a score of 93.4 percent, Sierra Conservation
Center (SCC) with a score of 93 percent, and Valley State Prison for Women (VSPW) with a score of
92.6 percent. Conversely, the three lowest scores for cycle 3 were Kern Valley State Prison (KVSP)
with a score of 77.6 percent, California Medical Facility (CMF) with a score of 79.1 percent, and
California State Prison, Sacramento (SAC) with a score of 79.2 percent.
The improvement in institutions’ overall scores from cycle 1 to cycle 3 can be attributed to steady
improvement in the institutions’ scores for the individual 20 components. For cycle 3, nine of the
institutions met or exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence in all
20 components. In contrast, in cycle 2, only two of the 33 institutions met or exceeded 75 percent in all
20 components, and in cycle 1, none of the institutions met the 75 percent level.
These scores indicate that the Receiver and CDCR are improving their adherence to their medical
policies and procedures.

The number of average medical component scores falling under the 75 percent moderate adherence
level has significantly improved since the completion of cycle 1. During cycle 1, eight of the 20 medical
components had average scores that fell below the 75 percent level (see Table 1C). During cycle 2, the
number improved to just two components that averaged below the 75 percent level (see Table 1B).
Most recently, during cycle 3, all components had an average score that exceeded the 75 percent moderate
adherence level (see Table 1A).
Although most institutions improved their overall score, additional improvement can still be achieved.
For example, as indicated in Appendix B, during cycle 3 twenty-four institutions received less than the
75 percent required to achieve a moderate adherence level score in one or more of the 20 components.

Although they are improving, no institution in cycle 3 achieved a score of 75 percent or higher on
every question within each of the 20 components. This is consistent with both cycles 1 and 2.
Tables 2A, 2B, and 2C illustrate all components in which an institution received a score of 74.9 percent
or lower on at least one question during cycles 1, 2, and 3. Most institutions’ overall component scores
were in the moderate to high adherence levels, yet no institution has ever scored at least 75 percent on
every question making up those components. Nonetheless, the institutions’ scores show improvement
over the three cycles.
For cycle 3, of the potential 660 components (20 components multiplied by 33 institutions), the
institutions cumulatively received a score of 75 percent or higher on all questions within a component
for 270 of the components. This is an improvement over cycle 2, in which institutions cumulatively
scored 75 percent or higher on all component-related questions for 173 of the components. For cycle 1,

General Medical Categories
While the medical inspections and their resultant reports show institutions’ scores in 20 components of
medical care delivery, the inspection instrument’s questions can also be sorted and viewed from
various perspectives. One perspective recommended by the OIG’s lead physician was to sort the
inspection questions into five general categories of medical care: medication management, access to
providers and services, primary care provider responsibilities, continuity of care, and nurse
responsibilities. Of the inspection instrument’s 151 questions, 91 were identified that applied to these
five categories.
Table 3 describes each category, discloses the number of questions used in that category, and provides
an example question from the category. In identifying the questions for the five categories, some
questions were determined to be appropriate for more than one category. Therefore, such questions
were included in all of the categories to which they applied. An example is the following question:
If the inmate had an existing medication order upon arrival at the institution, did the inmate
receive the medications within specified timeframes, or did a physician document why the
medications were not to be continued?(Question 02.128)
The above question applies to the medication management category because it involves the
institutions’ delivery of medication to inmates. However, the question also applies to the continuity of
care category since it determines whether inmates continued to receive their medications at their new
institutions. Accordingly, while each of the five categories has a specific set of questions, individual
questions like the one above sometimes appear in multiple categories. See Appendix C for the
questions assigned to each category.

As shown by the checked boxes in Table 4, questions were extracted from 14 of the 20 components to

services, chemical agent contraindications, staffing levels and training, and nursing policy are the only
components without at least one question that corresponds to one of the five general medical
categories.

Medical Category Analysis
As summarized in Table 5 below, the overall average score for each medical category progressively
improved from cycle 1 through cycle 3. In cycle 1, the institutions had an overall average score that
fell into the low adherence level (less than 75 percent) for three of the five categories, and the moderate
adherence level for the other two categories. In cycle 2, the institutions scored in the moderate
adherence level in all five categories. In cycle 3, the institutions’ overall average category scores
reached the high adherence level for all five categories.

Medication Management
The Medication Management category evaluates the timely delivery of medications to inmates and
certain elements of medication administration. These elements include the availability of medications,
maintenance of medications, and the screening of new medications for potential adverse reactions.
Fourteen questions from the following medical care components were used to develop our analysis:
chronic care, clinical services, health screening, urgent services, inmate transfers, clinic operations,
preventive services, and pharmacy services.
Over the three cycles, prisons continually improved in administering and delivering medications
to inmates and the majority of institutions were in the high adherence level in cycle 3.
The 33 institutions’ average score for Medication Management in

respectively. The two lowest scoring prisons in cycle 3 were CMF and SAC, with scores of 62.5 percent
and 71.6 percent, respectively, both of which were at the low adherence level.

In analyzing the CMF and SAC results, opportunities for improvement were found to exist in several
areas of medication management. Specifically, both CMF and SAC scored between zero and
65 percent in four questions related to untimely or improper administration of medication to inmate-
patients, and one question related to improperly maintained crash cart inventories. In addition, nurses
interviewed at CMF indicated they did not understand that medications must be administered on the
same date as prepared, further compounding CMF’s low adherence score.

Access to Providers and Services
The Access to Providers and Services category assesses the institutions’ effectiveness in ensuring that
inmates are seen by primary care providers or are provided services for routine, urgent, and emergency
medical needs according to timelines set by CDCR policy. Effective institution medical care depends on
inmates’ access to providers and services; a key indicator of appropriate access to providers and
services is timeliness. To develop this analysis, 32 questions related to access to providers and services
were used from the following medical care components: chronic care, clinical services, health
screening, specialty services, urgent services, emergency services, prenatal care/childbirth/post-
delivery, diagnostic services, outpatient housing unit, preventive services, and inmate hunger strikes.
The institutions’ average score for the Access to Providers and Services
category steadily improved from a low to a high adherence level over the Cycle 3 Key Statistics
three cycles. The 33 institutions’ average score in cycle 3 for this Category Average ......... 87.1%

In analyzing the KVSP results, opportunities for improvement were found in several areas including:
timeliness of patient visits, monitoring patients on certain medications, and provisions for inmates on
hunger strikes. Specifically, tests in four different component program areas were performed to
determine if inmates were seen by a clinician within specified timeframes (as recommended by a
registered nurse or as required by policy), and the institution scored in the lower 60th percentile on each
of the four related questions. In addition, the institution scored zero percent when tested on its
monitoring of five inmate-patients on INH (a medication used to treat tuberculosis). Further, KVSP
scored only 20 percent on each of two questions regarding hunger strikes and whether a clinician
performed daily assessments of hunger strike participants and offered them certain services as required
by policy.

Primary Care Provider Responsibilities
The Primary Care Provider Responsibilities category assesses how well the institutions’ physicians,
nurse practitioners, and physician assistants perform their duties and whether processes related to
providing clinical care are consistent with policy. To develop this analysis, 26 questions were used from
the following medical care components: chronic care, health screening, urgent services, prenatal
care/childbirth/post-delivery, diagnostic services, outpatient housing unit, and inmate hunger strikes.
All 33 institutions achieved either moderate or high adherence in this category for cycle 3. While
most of the institutions improved their performance in the Primary Care Provider Responsibilities
category for cycle 3, nine institutions received a lower score than they did in the previous cycle.
Cycle 3 Key Statistics
No institution scored below the moderate adherence level in cycle 3.

Conclusion
Most institutions’ overall scores increased significantly across the three cycles of medical
inspections. This indicates the Receiver and CDCR are showing improvement in their adherence
to health care policies and procedures.
Overall scores are based on testing in 20 components of medical care delivery.
Thus, improvements in overall scores from cycle 1 to cycle 3 indicate improvements in the
scores for the individual 20 components. For example, in cycle 3, nine of the 33 institutions met
or exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence in all 20 components.
This compares favorably to cycle 2 where only two institutions met or exceeded 75 percent and
contrasts with cycle 1 where no institution achieved at least 75 percent in all 20 components.
For cycle 3, all 33 institutions achieved overall inspection scores exceeding the 75 percent
minimum score for moderate adherence, and 25 of these institutions achieved high adherence
scores exceeding 85 percent. In cycle 3, the highest scoring institutions were FSP with a score of
93.4 percent, SCC with a score of 93 percent, and VSPW with a score of 92.6 percent.
The lowest scoring prisons were KVSP with a score of 77.6 percent, CMF with a score of
79.1 percent, and SAC with a score of 79.2 percent. This range of scores represents a significant
improvement over previous cycles. In cycle 2, the scores ranged from 73 percent to 89.5 percent,
and in cycle 1, no scores reached the high adherence level, with scores ranging from 62.4 percent
to 83.2 percent.
When the medical component results were examined based on how the components function
together to deliver health care in the five general medical care categories, scoring improvements
were again demonstrated over the three cycles. The average category scores for cycle 3 are:
Continuity of Care - 90.7 percent, Access to Providers and Services - 88.1 percent,
Nurse Responsibilities - 86.8 percent, Medication Management - 87.4 percent, and
Primary Care Provider Responsibilities - 87.1 percent.
As illustrated above, the average scores for all five categories are at the high adherence level in
cycle 3, compared to moderate adherence average scores in cycle 2. In cycle 1, institutions’
average scores were at the low adherence level for three of the five categories, and at the
moderate adherence level for the other two categories.
Consistency in medical care and adherence to policies and procedures is steadily improving.
The upward trend in both overall scores and individual medical category scores indicates
continued progress in providing health care that adheres to CDCR’s medical policies and
procedures.

Page 1 of 2
Chronic Care: Examines how well the institution provided care and medication to inmates with
specific chronic care conditions, which are those that affect (or have the potential to affect) an
inmate's functioning and long-term prognosis for more than six months. The inspection tests anti-
coagulation therapy and the following chronic care conditions: asthma, diabetes, HIV (Human
Immunodeficiency Virus), and hypertension.
Clinical Services: Evaluates the inmate's access to primary health care services and focuses on
inmates who recently received services from any of the institution's facilities or administrative
segregation unit clinics. This component evaluates sick call processes (doctor or nurse line),
medication management, and nursing.
Health Screening: Focuses on the institution's process for screening new inmates upon arrival
to the institution for health care conditions that require treatment and monitoring, as well as
ensuring inmates' continuity of care.
Specialty Services: Focuses on the institution's process for approving, denying, and scheduling
services that are outside the specialties of the institution's medical staff. Common examples of
these services include cardiology services, physical therapy, oncology services, podiatry
consultations, and neurology services.
Urgent Services: Addresses the care provided by the institution to inmates before and after they
were sent to a community hospital.
Emergency Services: Examines how well the institution responded to inmate medical
emergencies.
Prenatal Care/Childbirth/Post-delivery: Focuses on the prenatal and post-delivery medical care
provided to pregnant inmates. This component is not applicable at men's institutions.
Diagnostic Services: Addresses the timeliness of radiology (x-ray) and laboratory services and
whether the prison followed up on clinically significant results.
Access to Health Care Information: Addresses the prison's effectiveness in filing, storing, and
retrieving medical records and medical-related information.
Outpatient Housing Unit: Determines whether the institution followed department policies and
procedures when placing inmates in the outpatient housing unit.5 This component also evaluates
whether the placement provided the inmate with adequate care and whether the physician's plan
addressed the placement diagnosis.
5 An outpatient housing unit (OHU) is a facility that provides outpatient health services to inmates and assists them
with the activities of daily living.

Internal Reviews: Focuses on the activities of the prison’s Quality Management Committee and Emergency
Medical Response Review Committee. This component also evaluates the timeliness of the inmates’ medical
appeals, and the prison’s use of inmate death reviews
Inmate Transfers: Focuses on inmates pending transfer to determine whether the sending institution
documented medication and medical conditions to assist the receiving institution in providing continuity of
care.
Clinic Operations: Addresses the general operational aspects of the institution's facility clinics. Generally, the
questions in this component relate to the cleanliness of the clinics, privacy afforded to inmates during non-
emergency visits, use of priority ducats (slips of paper the inmates carries for scheduled medical appointments),
and availability of health care request forms.
Preventive Services: Focuses on inmate cancer screening, tuberculosis evaluation, and influenza
immunizations.
Pharmacy Services: Addresses whether the institution's pharmacy complies with various operational policies,
such as conducting periodic inventory counts, maintaining the currency of medications in its crash carts and
after-hours medication supplies, and having valid permits. In addition, this component also addresses whether
the pharmacy has an effective process for screening medication orders for potential adverse
reactions/interactions.
Other Services: Examines additional areas that are not captured in the other components. The areas evaluated
in this component include the institution's provision of therapeutic diets, its handling of inmates who display
poor hygiene, and the availability of the current version of the department's Inmate Medical Services Policies
and Procedures.
Inmate Hunger Strikes: Examines medical staff's monitoring of inmates participating in hunger strikes lasting
more than three days.
Chemical Agent Contraindications: Addresses the institution's process for handling inmates who may be
predisposed to an adverse outcome from calculated uses of force (cell extractions) involving Oleoresin
Capsicum (OC), which is commonly referred to as "pepper spray." For example, this might occur if the inmate
has asthma.
Staffing Levels and Training: Examines the institution's medical staffing levels and training provided.
Nursing Policy: Determines whether the institution maintains written policies and procedures for the safe and
effective provision of quality nursing care. The questions in this component also determine whether nursing
staff review their duty statements and whether supervisors periodically review the work of nurses to ensure they
properly follow established nursing protocols.
