Executive Summary
This report summarizes and analyzes the results of the Offi ce of the Inspector General’s
(OIG) medical inspections of the 33 adult prisons operated by the California Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR). These 33 medical inspections denote the completion
of the Offi ce of the Inspector General’s fi rst cycle of prison medical inspections.
Background
As the result of the federal court class action lawsuit known as Plata v. Schwarzenegger,
medical care at California’s 33 prisons is the responsibility of a federal Receiver appointed
by the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (Court). The Court
appointed the Receiver in 2006 to raise the quality of medical care in California’s prisons to
constitutional standards.
At the Court’s and the Receiver’s request, the OIG developed a comprehensive inspection
program to evaluate the quality of medical care at each prison. In September 2008, we began
our statewide inspections using teams of physicians, registered nurses, deputy inspectors
general, and analysts. For the fi rst cycle of medical inspections, the 166-question inspection
program used “yes” and “no” answers to assess the prisons’ compliance with CDCR’s medical
policies and procedures as well as with community standards in 20 key components of prison
medical care. The questions are weighted based on their importance to the delivery of medical
care to inmates. Compliance is measured in “yes” answers. Our inspections result in weighted
component scores and an overall weighted score for each prison.
All parties to the lawsuit agreed that the OIG should primarily measure prisons’ compliance
with the aforementioned CDCR medical policies and procedures. However, the Court has yet
to defi ne what level of compliance with those policies and procedures meets constitutional
standards. Therefore, by agreement with the Court and the Receiver, our inspections do not
conclude whether a prison has passed or failed an inspection. Instead, we report each prison’s
percentage of compliance with CDCR medical policies and procedures and, in the absence of
such policies and procedures, appropriate medical community standards.
Unlike the individual inspection reports, this 33-prison report puts the prisons’ scores into a
qualitative context. We do so by comparing the prisons’ average and individual scores to the
Receiver’s scoring criteria for three levels of adherence to policies and procedures. Thus a 75
percent score is the minimum score for moderate adherence. Scores below 75 percent denote low
adherence, while those above 85 percent refl ect high adherence. In providing a qualitative context
to the percentage scores, it is not our intention to determine or imply the percentage score that
meets a constitutional standard of medical care. That determination remains with the Court.
This is our second report summarizing and analyzing the results of our prison medical
inspections. Using the Receiver’s scoring criteria, we issued a report in August 2010 at the
halfway point of the fi rst cycle of 33 prison medical inspections. That report, which covered
the 17 prisons initially inspected, found that only two of the 17 prisons achieved overall scores
State of California • May 2011 Page 1
that exceeded the Receiver’s minimum score for moderate adherence. The 17 prisons’ average
overall score was 70 percent, and we found signifi cant problems with how the prisons managed
inmates’ medications and how they provided inmates access to medical providers and services.
Results in Brief
The results of our fi rst 33 medical inspections demonstrate that the Receiver and CDCR can
improve prisons’ compliance with CDCR medical policies and procedures and selected medical
community standards in a number of areas.
Only nine of the 33 prisons met or exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for moderate
adherence, and no prison achieved high adherence. Twenty-four of the 33 prisons performed
below the minimum score for moderate adherence, but 12 were close, with scores of 70 percent
to 74 percent; the average overall weighted score was 72 percent. Prisons’ scores ranged from
83 percent for Folsom State Prison down to 62 percent for High Desert State Prison. Folsom
State Prison is the only prison to achieve moderate or high adherence in the six most heavily
weighted components of the inspection program.
We also reviewed the 33 prisons’ performance in these fi ve general medical categories:
medication management; access to medical providers and services; primary care provider
responsibilities; continuity of care; and nurse responsibilities. In doing so, we noted two
signifi cant recurring problems. First, nearly all prisons were ineffective at ensuring that inmates
receive their medications. Thirty of the 33 prisons either failed to timely administer, provide,
or deliver medications or failed to document that they had done so. The 33 prisons’ average
score of 59 percent in medication management was signifi cantly below the minimum score for
moderate adherence.
Numerous prisons were signifi cantly noncompliant in the following medication management
tasks: delivering sick call medications (new orders) to inmates; providing chronic care
medications; providing medications to inmates within one day of arrival at the prison;
delivering medications to inmates upon discharge from an outside hospital; and administering
tuberculosis medications.
Since failures in compliance with medication management policies can stem from a failure to
provide medications or from a failure to document having provided medications, we do not
know the extent to which either cause contributed to prisons’ poor performance in this area.
However, our inspections found numerous instances in which the documentation suggests
that inmates did not receive their medications, including Isoniazid, a medication that controls
tuberculosis. We conclude, therefore, that the prisons are not merely failing to document that
inmates received their medications; they are also failing to provide the medications to the
inmates. Both types of failure denote noncompliance and poor performance.
The second recurring problem among the 33 prisons was poor access to medical providers
and services. Prisons were generally ineffective at ensuring that inmates are seen or provided
Bureau of Audits, Offi ce of the Inspector General Page 2
services for routine, urgent, and emergency medical needs according to timelines set by CDCR
policy. Effective prison medical care depends on inmates’ timely access to providers and
services. Only six prisons met the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence on access
to providers and services, while ten prisons scored 60 percent or less. The average score, at 66
percent, was substantially less than the minimum score for moderate adherence.
More encouragingly, the 80 percent score in nurse responsibilities and the 76 percent score
in continuity of care enabled both categories to exceed the minimum score for moderate
adherence. However, by averaging 72 percent, primary care provider responsibilities fell below
the minimum score for moderate adherence.
Other fi ndings from our fi rst 33 medical inspections follow.
Prisons scored particularly poorly in two component areas: preventive services and inmate
hunger strikes. The average score for preventive services was only 44 percent, and we found
alarmingly low scores in tuberculosis treatment, which can affect the health of inmates and
staff alike. Prisons also performed quite poorly in monitoring inmates on hunger strikes lasting
more than three days. Hunger strikes of this length, although few in number, require careful
monitoring, yet the prisons scored only 57 percent.
The prisons’ average score exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence
in 12 of the 20 component areas. However, many of those 12 components are less heavily
weighted. Health screening, urgent services, and emergency services were the only components
of the six most heavily weighted components in which the prisons’ average score exceeded 75
percent. Moreover, 28 of the 33 prisons failed to achieve moderate adherence in both chronic
care and clinical services, the two most heavily weighted components. Nevertheless, the 96
percent average score in staffi ng levels and training refl ects positively on the prisons’ efforts
to provide around-the-clock physician and nursing services and to train nursing staff on face-
to-face triage techniques in a prison setting. The 93 percent average score in chemical agent
contraindications and the 92 percent average score in clinic operations are also noteworthy.
The prisons had mixed results on individual questions. The prisons achieved average scores
of 86 percent or higher on 69 of the 165 scored questions in our medical inspection program.
However, the prisons scored consistently poorly on 36 questions, averaging 60 percent or
less, and in some cases substantially less. This 60-percent mark, the Receiver’s threshold for
developing specifi c corrective action plans, indicates areas of prison medical care that require
signifi cant improvement. For example, 25 of the 33 prisons routinely failed to schedule
appointments within two weeks for inmates with urgent needs for specialty services. The
prisons’ average score on this question was 42 percent.
Conclusion
We fi nd that the wide variation among component scores within prisons, and the wide variation
among prisons’ average component scores, suggest that the Receiver has not yet implemented
State of California • May 2011 Page 3
a system that ensures that CDCR medical policies and procedures and medical community
standards are followed across the prison system. The higher scores in some component areas
and medical categories, however, demonstrate that system-wide improvement can be achieved.

Introduction
At the request of the federal Court and the Court-appointed Receiver, and authorized by
California Penal Code section 6126, which assigns oversight of the California Department
of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) to the Offi ce of the Inspector General (OIG), the
OIG developed a comprehensive inspection program to evaluate the delivery of medical care
at each of CDCR’s 33 adult prisons. This report summarizes and analyzes the results of the
OIG’s initial medical inspections of those 33 prisons. This is our second report summarizing
and analyzing the results of our prison medical inspections. In August 2010, we issued a report
at the halfway point of the fi rst cycle of 33 prison medical inspections.1 That report covered the
fi rst 17 prisons inspected.
Background
In April 2001, inmates represented by the Prison Law Offi ce fi led a federal court class action
lawsuit, now known as Plata v. Schwarzenegger. The lawsuit alleged that the state provided
inadequate medical care at California adult prisons in violation of inmates’ constitutional
rights. In June 2002, the parties entered into a Stipulation for Injunctive Relief (stipulation),
and the state agreed to implement comprehensive new medical care policies and procedures at
all prisons.
More than three years later, the United States District Court for the Northern District of
California (Court) declared in October 2005 that California’s delivery system for prison
medical care still did not meet constitutional standards. Characterizing the prison health care
system as “broken beyond repair,” the Court ordered a receivership to raise medical care to
constitutional standards. On February 14, 2006, the Court appointed a Receiver with orders to
manage the state’s delivery of medical care and to develop a sustainable system that provides
constitutionally adequate medical care to inmates. The Court will remove the Receiver and
return control to CDCR once the system is stable and provides constitutionally adequate
medical care.
OIG Medical Inspection Program
To monitor and evaluate the progress of their efforts to improve medical care delivery
to inmates, the Court and the Receiver requested that the OIG establish an objective,
clinically appropriate and metric-oriented medical inspection program. In response, the OIG
developed an inspection program to test prisons’ compliance with CDCR medical policies
and procedures and medical community standards. Our objective is to conduct consistently
applied assessments of inmate medical care at all 33 California state prisons, and to present
independent and comparable results. The inspection reports are intended to be used by the
Court, the Receiver, CDCR, and the plaintiffs to assess the medical care that inmates receive at
each state prison.

at www.oig.ca.gov
State of California • May 2011 Page 5
In 2007, we developed a medical inspection program to assess the medical care provided at
California adult prisons. In devising the program, we obtained and reviewed the following:
• 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 offi ce, CDCR, and the plaintiffs’
counsel (Prison Law Offi ce)
Based on this research, we established an on-site inspection program to collect over 1,000
data elements from each prison using up to 166 questions covering 20 essential components
of medical care delivery.2 Our inspection teams consist of physicians,

registered nurses, deputy inspectors general, and analysts. The

inspection tool they use allows for a broadly scoped and consistent
(in order of importance): method of examining medical care at correctional institutions.
Chronic Care
Clinical Services For each of the 20 components of prison health care, we created

questions with “yes” or “no” answers designed to gauge performance.
Specialty Services
We worked with clinical experts to create a weighting system that

Diagnostic Services This weighting ensures that components that pose the greatest medical

risk to the inmate-patient (and are thus more important) are given

more weight than those that pose less risk. For example, we assigned

a high number of possible points to the chronic care component

cycle one, chronic care accounts for 16 percent of the total possible

points in the medical inspection program. Clinical services, the
Inmate Hunger Strikes
second most heavily weighted component, accounts for 11 percent.
Chemical Agent Contraindications
Staffi ng Levels and Training In total, the six most heavily weighted components account for 56
Nursing Policy percent of the medical inspection program. Conversely, we assigned
proportionately fewer points to components that pose less risk to the
2 For the second cycle of prison medical inspections currently underway, there are 152 questions. By prior
agreement of all parties, we evaluated the medical inspection program following completion of the fi rst cycle of
medical inspections. As a result, we made a limited number of changes. These changes include eliminating a medical
emergency drill, adding some questions and dropping others, and changing the weighting of certain questions.
3 One question (Question 18.002) in the staffi ng levels and training component does not factor into the overall
inspection score a prison receives.

inmate-patient. For example, pharmacy services accounts for only three percent and chemical
agent contraindications account for only two percent. Defi nitions of components are listed in
Appendix A.
The inspections identify instances of noncompliance with CDCR medical policies and
procedures, as well as medical community standards of care. However, we neither attempt
to identify the causes for noncompliance nor recommend remedies for specifi c instances
of inadequacy. Further, we do not review for effi ciency and economy of operations. Our
inspection tool is designed to present an objective and consistent assessment of medical
care—to mirror back to the prisons the reality of their health care delivery system.
Consequently, our inspection scores should be used by the prisons, CDCR, the Receiver, the
plaintiffs’ counsel, and the Court to determine whether the constitutional level of medical
care has been achieved and to identify areas that must be improved to meet the mandated
level of care.
All parties to the lawsuit agreed that the OIG should primarily measure prisons’ compliance
with the aforementioned CDCR medical policies and procedures. However, the Court has yet
to defi ne what level of compliance with those policies and procedures meets constitutional
standards. Therefore, by agreement with the Court and the Receiver, our inspections do not
conclude whether a prison has passed or failed an inspection. Instead, we merely report each
prison’s percentage of compliance with CDCR medical policies and procedures and, in the
absence of such policies and procedures, selected medical community standards.
In performing the inspections, we identify random samples of inmates receiving or requiring
specifi c medical services. We then review the medical fi le for each inmate in our sample
to determine if the medical care provided met established criteria. For these samples our
inspection program assumes that if a prison’s medical staff does not document an event in an
inmate’s unit health record, the event in question did not happen. If an inmate’s record does
not show that the inmate received his medications on a specifi ed date, for example, we assume
that the inmate did not receive the medications. While it is possible that the inmate received
his medications and the staff neglected to document the event, our program cannot assume that
appropriate care was provided.
Our program also reviews staffi ng level reports, medical appeals summaries, nursing policies and
procedures, summaries of medical drills and emergencies, minutes from Quality Management
Committee and Emergency Medical Response Review Committee meetings, the contents of
inmate transfer envelopes, and assorted manual logs or tracking worksheets related to medical
care delivery. Turning from the examination of documents to the examination of people and
their actions, we observe the day-to-day medical operations at each prison. For this fi rst cycle of
medical inspections, we conducted a live medical emergency drill and evaluated the adequacy
of the responding staff’s actions. And fi nally, we interview medical and custody staff about the
delivery of medical care to inmates.
For each prison, our published inspection reports present an overall percentage score as well as
percentage scores for component areas. Although the Court has yet to determine the percentage
State of California • May 2011 Page 7
score necessary for an institution to meet the constitutional standard, the Receiver currently
applies the following scoring criteria to measure each prison’s adherence to medical policies
and procedures:
• More than 85 percent: High adherence
• 75 to 85 percent: Moderate adherence
• Less than 75 percent: Low adherence
The Receiver requires that each prison develop a corrective action plan following an inspection.
The corrective action plan must describe how the prison intends to remedy conditions that
contributed to a score of 60 percent or lower on each question.
Because the Plata litigation addresses only medical care, we do not assess the provision of
dental care or mental health services in prisons. Nor do we assess the care provided in licensed
hospitals or correctional treatment centers, which are subject to inspection and oversight by
other regulatory agencies.
Using the Receiver’s scoring criteria, we issued a report in August 2010 at the halfway point
of the fi rst cycle of 33 prison medical inspections. That report, which covered the 17 prisons
initially inspected, found that only two of the 17 prisons achieved overall scores that exceeded
the Receiver’s minimum score for moderate adherence. The 17 prisons’ average overall score
was 70 percent, and we found signifi cant problems with how the prisons managed inmates’
medications and how they provided inmates access to medical providers and services.

Objectives, Scope, and Methodology
In September 2008, we began the fi rst of our statewide medical inspections, and in October
2010 we completed the report on our thirty-third prison medical inspection. The thirty-third
medical inspection denotes the end of the fi rst cycle of our prison medical inspection program.
This report summarizes the results of that fi rst cycle of 33 medical inspections, and it provides
additional analysis of the data obtained from those inspections. The report includes data from
inspections performed at the state’s 30 men’s prisons and three women’s prisons. The prisons
are listed below:

In analyzing and summarizing the results of our fi rst 33 medical inspections, our objective was
to provide a practical interpretation of the data and an assessment of the quality of medical
care provided to inmates. In doing so, we looked for signifi cant trends and variations in data,
compliance problems common to or unique to prisons, and other data characteristics we
believed noteworthy.
Unlike the individual inspection reports, this 33-prison report puts the prisons’ scores into a
qualitative context. We do so by comparing the prisons’ average and individual scores to the
Receiver’s scoring criteria. Thus a 75 percent score is the minimum score for moderate adherence
4
to relevant policies and procedures. Scores below 75 percent denote low adherence, while those
4 All average scores in this report are based on the arithmetic mean. We developed no median or modal
averages.
State of California • May 2011 Page 9
above 85 percent refl ect high adherence. As discussed below, we have rounded all percentage
scores in this report and the appendices to the nearest whole number. Therefore, when we apply
rounding to the Receiver’s scoring criteria, this report refl ects adherence as follows:
• 86 percent and higher: High adherence
• 75-85 percent: Moderate adherence
• 74 percent and lower: Low adherence
In providing a qualitative context to the percentage scores, it is not our intention to determine
or imply the percentage score that meets a constitutional standard of medical care. That
determination remains with the Court.
In addition to reviewing our inspection results by prison, we analyzed our data using the
following two perspectives, and we cite the results of each perspective in separate sections of
this report.
Results by Medical Component – Our fi rst perspective compares the weighted inspection
scores of all 33 prisons in each of the 20 component areas. This perspective provides a system-
wide context, comparing health care delivery performances among prisons, and provides
information about each prison’s performance in specifi c component areas, noting areas in
which prisons scored particularly well or particularly poorly.
In this fi rst perspective, we present profi les of each of the 20 components. These profi les
summarize the prisons’ individual and average scores in each component of prison health care,
including the average of the top two prisons’ scores and the variation from the highest score
to the lowest score, expressed in percentage points. In addition, we identify areas requiring
signifi cant improvement consistent with the Receiver’s requirement for corrective action plans.
We also identify areas in which the prisons’ performances refl ect high adherence to medical
policies and procedures. We defi ne areas requiring signifi cant improvement as any area in
which prisons earned an average score of 60 percent or less — the Receiver’s threshold for
corrective action. We defi ne areas of high adherence as any area in which prisons earned an
average score of 86 percent or more.
Results by General Medical Category – For our second perspective, we move from examining
disparate components of prison health care to examining how these components function
together to deliver health care at California’s 33 adult prisons. Working with our lead physician,
we identifi ed 100 questions that fi t into fi ve general categories of medical care. We sorted these
questions into the general health care categories and analyzed the results. The fi ve general medical
categories, which offer a broader perspective on the experience of prison medical care, include:
• Medication Management
• Access to Providers and Services
• Primary Care Provider Responsibilities
• Continuity of Care
• Nurse Responsibilities
Bureau of Audits, Offi ce of the Inspector General Page 10
We analyze the data by prison, as well as by category, in order to help policy makers evaluate
medical care delivery in this broader context.
Appendices – Because of the technical nature of our medical inspections and the signifi cant
volume of information in this report, we have included the following four appendices:
• Appendix A: Contains the defi nitions of the components we use in our medical
inspections program.
• Appendix B: Contains a synopsis of each prison’s scores by component.
• Appendix C: Cites the text for each question in the 20 components and contains the 33
prisons’ scores for each question.
• Appendix D: Cites the text for each question in the fi ve medical categories and contains
the 33 prisons’ scores for each question.
Rounding – Throughout this report and the appendices, we have rounded all percentage scores
to the nearest whole number. As discussed in the preface to the appendices of this report,
our rounding has resulted in scores that differ slightly from those in the inspection reports
for the 33 prisons. For example, the overall score in the inspection report for DVI is 72.6
percent; however, for this report we have rounded the score to 73 percent. The net effect of
our rounding of scores is negligible, as shown by the fact that rounding affected the qualitative
assessments of only 13 of the 654 combined overall and component scores from our 33
medical inspections. In all 13 cases, the rounding favored the prisons because in four cases the
rounded score moved the prisons from low adherence to moderate adherence, and in nine cases
the rounded score moved the prisons from moderate adherence to high adherence. In only one
case did the rounding move a prison’s overall score. In that case, we rounded MCSP’s overall
score from 74.5 percent to 75 percent, moving the qualitative score from low adherence to
moderate compliance.
State of California • May 2011 Page 11
Results of the First Cycle of Medical Inspections
Nine of the 33 prisons’ overall scores met or exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for
moderate adherence. Whereas our 17-prison summary report found that only two of the fi rst
17 prisons exceeded the 75 percent score for moderate adherence, seven of the last 16 prisons
met or exceeded the 75 percent minimum score. Prisons’ overall scores ranged from 83 percent
for FSP down to 62 percent for HDSP. FSP is the only prison to achieve moderate or high
adherence in the six most heavily weighted components. The average score for the fi rst 17
inspections was 70 percent and the average score for the last 16 inspections was 74 percent,
resulting in an overall average score of 72 percent for all 33 prisons. These scores reveal that
the Receiver and the prisons can improve compliance with CDCR’s medical policies and
procedures and selected medical community standards.
Nearly all of the prisons failed to achieve moderate adherence in three of the six most heavily
weighted components. For example, 28 of them failed to achieve moderate adherence in both
chronic care and clinical services, the two most heavily weighted components. While overall
scores varied by only 21 percentage points, there were differences of as much as 89 percentage
points in the scores among institutions on individual components. Clearly, some prison staff
members carried out relevant policies and procedures while others did not.
The highest average component scores were 96 percent in staffi ng levels and training, 93
percent in chemical agent contraindications, and 92 percent in clinic operations. The prisons
achieved high adherence on 69 of the 165 scored questions in our medical inspection program.
The 33 prisons’ lowest average component scores were 44 percent in preventive services, 57
percent in inmate hunger strikes, 62 percent in chronic care, and 64 percent in access to health
care information. The prisons scored 60 percent or less on 36 of the 165 scored questions in our
medical inspection program. The Receiver can improve the prisons’ compliance with medical
policies and procedures by continuing to focus prisons’ performance on these 36 questions.
Turning from the in-depth examination of individual health care components, we examined
how those components function together to deliver health care. We sorted the data from 100
questions into fi ve general medical categories that were recommended by our lead physician.
From this broader perspective, we found signifi cant problems in the categories of medication
management and access to providers and services. These are the same two categories we found
problematic in our 17-prison summary report. The average score in medication management
was only 59 percent, indicating that prisons were ineffective in getting medications to inmates
in a timely manner or were failing to document their actions as required by policy. The average
score for access to providers and services was only 66 percent. This low score indicates that
the prisons were generally ineffective in ensuring that inmates are seen or provided services
for routine, urgent, and emergency medical needs according to timelines set by CDCR policy.
Access to providers and services scores ranged from 87 percent down to 45 percent. In the
remaining three categories, nurse responsibilities and continuity of care, with scores of 80
Bureau of Audits, Offi ce of the Inspector General Page 12
percent and 76 percent, respectively, exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for moderate
adherence. Further, primary care provider responsibilities was close, with an average score of
72 percent.
The following sections of this report summarize and analyze the 33 prisons’ overall scores,
their scores in each of the 20 components, and their scores in each of the fi ve general medical
categories.

Overall Scores and Medical Components
Nine prisons’ overall scores met or exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for moderate
adherence. As shown in Chart 1, the average score for the 33 prisons was 72 percent; this score
is two percentage points higher than the 70 percent average score we reported in our 17-prison
summary report. The scores varied 21 percentage points from highest to lowest.
Of the nine prisons that met or exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for moderate
adherence, FSP’s score of 83 percent was the highest, while CIM and PBSP tied for second-
highest score with 81 percent. VSPW scored 80 percent. With the exception of a 57 percent
score in preventive services, FSP had no component score lower than 70 percent. Further, FSP
is the only prison to achieve moderate or high adherence in the six most heavily weighted
components.
Another 12 prisons had scores that ranged from 74 percent to 70 percent, which put them close
to the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence. The remaining 12 prisons had scores
that ranged from 69 percent to 62 percent.
Component Analysis
Nearly all of the prisons failed to achieve moderate adherence in three of the six most
heavily weighted components. We have summarized all 33 institutions’ scores for each of the
20 components on one table in Appendix B. As shown in Appendix B, 28 of the 33 prisons
failed to achieve moderate adherence in both chronic care and clinical services, the two
most heavily weighted components in the medical inspection program, with a combined 27
percent of the total possible points in cycle one. The average score for chronic care was only
62 percent, and the score for clinical services was only 65 percent. The average score for
specialty services, another of the six most heavily weighted components, was only 66 percent.
The average of the scores in the six most heavily weighted components was only 71 percent,
whereas the average of the scores in the remaining components was 77 percent. The six most
heavily weighted components account for 56 percent of the possible points in the medical
inspection program in cycle one.
There were wide variations in some prisons’ component scores, while in other cases the
variations were substantially narrower. For example:
• The largest variation in an individual prison’s component scores was 89 percentage points.
This characteristic was shared by RJD and SAC. Each prison scored only 11 percent in
inmate hunger strikes and yet each received 100 percent scores in other components.
• The smallest variation in component scores was the 34 percentage points achieved by
VSPW, which scored only 66 percent in clinical services, yet received 100 percent in six
other components. VSPW, which had the fourth highest overall score of 80 percent, could
have had an even higher overall score if four of its lowest scores were not in the six most
heavily weighted components.
State of California • May 2011 Page 15
Thirty-two of the 33 prisons scored 100 percent in at least one component, with CAL’s seven
100 percent scores the most by any prison. CCI, with an overall score of 64, was the only
prison not to achieve a 100 percent score in any component. However, even CCI did well in
certain components. Notably, it scored 91 percent in clinic operations.
There were wide variations in average scores by component. As a group, the prisons
performed well in several components, marginally in other components, and poorly in several
components. Chart 2 compares the average scores for medical components across all prisons.
These scores ranged from a high of 96 percent in staffi ng levels and training down to 44
percent in preventive services, presenting a range of 52 percentage points.
In fi ve components, the average scores met the 86 percent minimum score for high adherence
to medical policies and procedures. In addition to the 96 percent in staffi ng levels and training,
the prisons achieved average scores of 93 percent in chemical agent contraindications, 92
percent in clinic operations, 88 percent in inmate transfers, and 87 percent in pharmacy
services. However, none of these components accounts for more than four percent of the total
points possible in the medical inspection program in cycle one.
The 96 percent average score in staffi ng levels and training refl ects positively on the prisons’
effort to ensure around-the-clock physician and nursing services, and to orient and train nursing
staff on face-to-face triage techniques in a prison setting.
Another seven components had average scores of 77 percent to 84 percent. The seven
components were other services, outpatient housing unit, internal reviews, emergency services,
urgent services, health screening, and nursing policy. Thus, a total of 12 of the 20 component
average scores exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence. However,
many of these 12 components are less heavily weighted components in the medical inspection
program.

The average scores in the following two component areas indicate low adherence to medical
policies and procedures and the need for improvement:
• Preventive services (44 percent). The low average score in preventive services refl ects
CDCR’s systematic failure to effectively identify and schedule inmates who need cancer
screenings and tuberculosis treatment.
• Inmate hunger strikes (57 percent). This low score shows that most of the prisons failed
to effectively carry out CDCR’s policies and procedures for dealing with inmates on
hunger strikes for more than three days.
The wide variation in component scores among institutions indicates that the 33 prisons were not
consistently executing CDCR’s medical policies and procedures, or complying with community
medical standards. This inconsistency is further illustrated by Table 1, which shows the high and
low scores that contributed to each component’s average score. Clearly, some prisons carried out
relevant medical policies and procedures while others did not.

Beginning in the next section, we present profi les of each of the 20 components. In these
profi les, we summarize the prisons’ individual and average scores, including the average of the
top two prisons’ scores and the variation from the top score to the lowest score, expressed in
percentage points. The average of the top two scores is important because it shows that a higher
level of performance by other prisons is possible. We also identify areas requiring signifi cant
improvement as well as areas with scores that indicated high adherence to medical policies and
procedures. We defi ned “areas requiring signifi cant improvement” as areas of prison medical
care in which prisons scored 60 percent or less. This is the Receiver’s threshold score for
Bureau of Audits, Offi ce of the Inspector General Page 18
requiring formal corrective action plans. We defi ned “areas achieving high adherence” as areas
of prison medical care that met or exceeded the 86 percent minimum score for high adherence
to medical policies and procedures.

Question Either the inmates’ medical fi les did not indicate that they had received their
03.175 prescribed chronic care medications during the most recent three-month period, or
the prison did not follow department policy when the inmate refused to pick up or
show up for his or her prescribed medications. The average score for this question
was only 34 percent. Twenty-four of the 33 prisons had scores of 50 percent or less,
and seven prisons received eight percent or less.
Question Prisons were not completing key components of two chronic care forms (Forms
03.077 7419 and 7392) that document vital signs and other important information about
the inmate’s two most recent visits. The average score for this question was only 46
percent, and 22 prisons scored 54 percent or lower. SOL received zero percent.
Question The clinical histories in inmates’ medical fi les were consistently inadequate. The
03.235 average score was only 54 percent. Only three of the 33 prisons had a score that met
the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence, and 20 prisons scored 60
percent or below on this question.

Question Nearly all of the prisons were completing the initial health screening on the same
02.016 day the inmate arrived at the prison. The prisons achieved an average score of 96
percent on this question. Twenty prisons scored 100 percent.
Question Nursing staff adequately documented either the tuberculin test or a review of signs
02.020 and symptoms for inmates with a previous positive tuberculin test. The average score
for this question was 93 percent. Fourteen prisons scored 100 percent.
Question If “yes” was answered to any of the questions on the initial health screening forms,
02.017 most prisons’ registered nurses performed an assessment and disposition on the date
of the inmate’s arrival. The average score for this question was 92 percent. Twenty-

Question Prisons’ medical records offi ces routinely failed to fi le all loose documents into inmates’
19.150 unit health records within the specifi ed time frame following medical services to the
inmate. (CDCR policy requires the fi ling of all loose documents no later than the close of
business each day. However, given the diffi culty of complying with this requirement, we
used a four-day criterion for this question.) Thirty-one of the 33 prisons failed the question
and received zero percent. The average score for this question was only six percent.
Question Twenty-two of the 33 prisons did not promptly fi le blood pressure logs in inmates’
19.272 unit health records. The average score for this question was only 48 percent.
Question Many prisons were unable to account for all requested medical fi les. In requesting
19.243 such fi les, we stress to medical records personnel that if they cannot provide a
requested fi le, they must explain why. However, 15 of the 33 prisons’ medical records
staff failed to explain why fi les were missing. For this question, the 33 prisons had an
average score of only 55 percent.
Areas Achieving High Adherence with Scores of 86 Percent or More
Question Medical records staff performed very well in making unit health records available
19.169 to clinic staff for inmates ducated for medical appointments the next day. With the
exception of ASP and SOL, all prisons received 100 percent on this question. The
average score was 95 percent.
Question Notwithstanding the slowness with which they did so, nearly all prisons properly fi led
19.266 inmates’ medical information. The average score for this question was 88 percent.
Question At all but four prisons, the OIG’s registered nurse and physician inspectors were
19.271 able to locate all relevant documentation of health care provided to inmates. The
average score for this question was 87 percent.

were to be administered by the same licensed staff member who prepared it and on the
same day. Medications stored in the clinic refrigerator were stored in a sealed container if
food was present in the refrigerator. The average scores for these three questions ranged
from 95 percent to 100 percent.
Questions These questions pertain to the inmate ducating (medical appointment) process. Most
14.032 prisons’ medical personnel understood their prison’s priority ducating process, and they
14.033 scored an average of 97 percent on the question (Question 14.032). Further, the prisons had
adequate processes to ensure that inmates moved to new cells still received their medical
ducats; the average score for this question (Question 14.033) was 98 percent.
Question The prisons were generally making the Form 7362 (Health Care Services Request Form)
14.023 available to inmates. The average score for this question was 94 percent. Twenty-seven
prisons scored 100 percent on this question.
Question The prisons generally made areas available to ensure inmates’ privacy during the
14.164 registered nurses’ face-to-face assessments and doctors’ examinations for non-
emergencies. Only CMF, CRC, and SOL consistently failed to do so. The average score
for this question was 91 percent.
Question The prisons generally had processes to identify, review, and address urgent appointments if a
14.160 doctor’s line was canceled. The average score for this question was 86 percent.

Questions Nearly all prisons failed to properly administer the Isoniazid (INH) medication
10.228 prescribed to inmates. Inmates prescribed INH are being treated for active or latent
10.232 tuberculosis infection. The average score for this question (Question 10.228) was
only 29 percent. Eight prisons scored zero percent. The second question (Question
10.232) asks whether the prison monitored inmates monthly while they were on the
medication. For this question, the average score was only 19 percent, and 20 prisons
received zero percent.
Question Most of the 30 adult male prisons failed to administer a fecal occult blood test (FOBT)
10.085 to their inmates aged 51 or older within the past 12 months. This is an uncomplicated
test that can be the fi rst indicator of cancer. However, the prisons’ average score was
only 41 percent. Fifteen of the prisons had scores of 30 percent or less. LAC, CCC,

Question Most prisons did not evaluate inmates with latent tuberculosis infection for signs and
10.229 symptoms of tuberculosis within the previous 12 months. The average score for this
question was only 50 percent. Although eleven prisons scored 100 percent, ten prisons
received zero percent.

Data Not Included in Scoring: Results of Staffi ng and Vacancy Rate Analysis
The 33 prisons’ vacancy rates for authorized positions ranged from a low of zero percent at
SAC to a high of 29 percent at PVSP. The average vacancy rate was eight percent, and 16
prisons had double-digit vacancy rates. We could not directly correlate vacancy rates with
medical inspection scores. Some prisons relied extensively on private registries to address
their vacancy problems. PVSP, with its 29 percent vacancy rate, had the most registry staff
members: 67. Vacancies may partially be the result of prison location. Prison medical staff
members frequently commented on the diffi culty of fi lling vacancies in rural, isolated prisons.
Background
During our prison medical inspections, the prisons provide us with data regarding their staffi ng
levels and authorized position vacancy rates in the following four medical classifi cations:
management, primary care providers, nursing supervisors, and nursing staff. We gather this
information for the benefi t of all interested parties; we do not, however, score prisons on their
staffi ng levels and vacancy rates because we do not have objective criteria by which to evaluate
compliance.
Table 2 combines the data from the four medical classifi cations and summarizes each of the
33 prisons’ reported staffi ng levels and vacancy rates. The table shows that the vacancy rates
ranged from a low of zero percent at SAC to a high of 29 percent at PVSP. Twelve prisons
had vacancy rates of fi ve percent or less, and the other 21 had vacancy rates of six percent or
more. Of this latter group, 16 had double-digit vacancy rates. (While not shown on Table 2, the
average vacancy rate for authorized positions at the 33 prisons was eight percent.)
PVSP and CVSP, the prisons with the two highest vacancy rates, had overall inspection scores
of 65 percent and 69 percent respectively, placing them in the bottom third of all prisons. While
these facts imply a correlation between vacancy rates and inspection scores, we cannot make
such a correlation. This is because SAC had a zero percent vacancy rate, but its inspection
score of 65 percent tied that of PVSP. On the other hand, SCC and WSP, with their 11 percent
vacancy rates, were among only nine prisons to achieve overall scores that met the 75 percent
benchmark for moderate adherence to medical policies and procedures.
When staff vacancies occur, prisons may have to pay overtime, work salaried staff members for
longer hours, or hire temporary staff from private registries. As shown in Table 2, some prisons
relied extensively on private registries. Six prisons had 47 or more registry staff members.
PVSP, with its 29 percent vacancy rate, had the most registry staff.

not calculate due to rounding. The data previously published in the inspection reports were provided by the prisons
and have not been audited.
Vacancies may be partially the result of prison location. PVSP, for example, is located in a rural,
remote setting. CVSP and CCI, with vacancy rates that were second and third highest behind
PVSP, are similarly situated. By way of contrast, SAC, with its zero percent vacancy rate, is
located near a larger urban area. FSP, which tied CMF for the second lowest vacancy rate, is next
door to SAC. CMF is adjacent to both the Bay Area and the Sacramento urban area.

General Medical Categories
As we did in our 17-prison summary report, we sorted the data from 100 key questions into
fi ve general medical categories recommended by our lead physician. In this 33-prison summary
report, we found the same signifi cant problems in the categories of medication management
and access to providers and services. The average score in medication management was only
59 percent, an increase of one percentage point over the 17-prison score. The medication
management score was low because prisons were ineffective in delivering medications to
inmates in a timely manner or were failing to document inmates’ receipt of medications as
required by policy. This problem occurred in the distribution or administration of medications
to newly arrived inmates, to inmates returning from outside hospitalization, to resident
inmates requiring routine care, and to resident inmates in need of chronic care medications and
tuberculosis medications. Only three prisons had scores that exceeded the 75 percent minimum
score for moderate adherence to medical policies and procedures. The average score for access
to providers and services was only 66 percent, an increase of six percentage points over the
17-prison score. This low score indicates that the prisons were generally ineffective in ensuring
that inmates are seen by primary care providers or provided services for routine, urgent, and
emergency medical needs according to timelines set by CDCR policy. Access to providers and
services scores ranged from 87 percent down to 45 percent. In the remaining three categories,
nurse responsibilities and continuity of care exceeded the 75 percent minimum score for
moderate adherence to policies and procedures. Nurse responsibilities had the same 80 percent
score achieved in the 17-prison summary report. Continuity of care’s score of 76 percent was
two percentage points higher than the score from the 17-prison review. However, in primary
care provider responsibilities the score fell from 74 percent to 72 percent.
Background
While our inspections and their resultant reports show prisons’ scores in 20 components of
medical care delivery, the inspection instrument’s questions can be sorted and viewed from
various perspectives. One perspective recommended by our lead physician was to sort our in-
spection questions into the following fi ve general categories of medical care: medication man-
agement, access to providers and services, continuity of care, primary care provider responsi-
bilities, and nurse responsibilities. Of the inspection instrument’s 165 questions, we identifi ed
100 that fi t into the fi ve categories.
Table 3 describes each category, discloses the number of questions in that category, and pro-
vides an example question from the category. The fi ve categories include 100 questions. In
identifying the questions for the fi ve categories, we determined that some questions were ap-
propriate to more than one category. Therefore, we included such questions in all of the catego-
ries 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 by the next calendar day, or did a physician explain why
the medications were not to be continued?(Question 02.128)
Bureau of Audits, Offi ce of the Inspector General Page 66
The above question applies to the medication management category because it involves the
prisons’ 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 prisons. Accordingly, while each of the fi ve categories has a specifi c set of questions,
individual questions like the one above sometimes appear in multiple categories. See Appendix
D for the questions we assigned to each category.

Form)? (Question 01.246)
We excluded other questions from categories because we determined that including them could
inappropriately impact scores. For example, Question 14.106 asks:
“Does clinical staff wash their hands (either with soap or hand sanitizer) or change
gloves between patients?”
This question pertains to the hygienic practices of all staff and does not differentiate primary
care providers from nurses. Therefore, we cannot fairly score primary care providers’
State of California • May 2011 Page 67
performance on this question when the hygienic practices of nurses cannot be separated, and
vice versa. Accordingly, we excluded this question and others with similar predicaments from
categories for which the questions skew the categories’ scores.
As shown by the checked boxes in Table 4 below, we extract questions from 14 of the
20 component areas to allow the reader to evaluate performance from this additional
perspective. Access to health care information, internal reviews, other services, chemical agent
contraindications, staffi ng levels and training, and nursing policy are the only components
without at least one question that fi ts into the fi ve general categories.

Category Analysis
There is low adherence to policies and procedures in the medication management and
access to providers and services categories. Chart 23 summarizes the results of our sorting the
questions from the 20 component areas into the fi ve general medical categories. The average
scores for these categories range from a low of 59 percent in medication management to a
high of 80 percent in nurse responsibilities. This range of scores is consistent with the range of
scores from the 17-prison summary report. In that report, medication management also scored
lowest at 58 percent, while nurse responsibilities were highest with the same 80 percent score.
Our analysis clearly demonstrates that prisons’ performances in medication management and
access to providers and services merit the Receiver’s continuing attention, as the 33 prisons’
average scores of 59 percent and 66 percent, respectively, are far below the 75 percent
minimum score for moderate adherence to policies and procedures. More encouragingly,
in addition to nurse responsibilities’ 80 percent score, continuity of care’s 76 percent score
enabled both categories to exceed the minimum score for moderate adherence. However, by
averaging 72 percent, primary care provider responsibilities fell below the minimum score for
moderate adherence.
In the following sections, we provide a more in-depth analysis of the 33 prisons’ performances
in each of the fi ve medical categories.

Medical Category: Medication Management
Page 1 of 3
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. To develop our analysis, we used 14 questions from the following medical
care components: chronic care, clinical services, health screening, urgent services, inmate
transfers, clinic operations, preventive services, and pharmacy services. Of the 14 questions,
fi ve pertain to medication delivery and nine pertain to medication administration. However, the
medication delivery questions are more important, and therefore they are more heavily weighted.
Prisons are ineffective at ensuring that inmates receive their medications. As shown in Charts
23 and 24, the 33 prisons’ average score for medication management was only 59 percent, one
percentage point higher than that reported in our 17-prison summary report. This is the lowest
average score within any of the fi ve general medical categories, and it clearly indicates that
medication management is weak. Only three prisons had scores that exceeded the 75 percent
score for moderate adherence to medical policies and procedures. Particularly troubling is that 18
of the prisons scored 57 percent or less.
The prisons performed especially poorly in medication delivery. They had an average score of
only 35 percent, which is one percentage point higher than the score reported for medication
delivery in our 17-prison summary report. Thirty of the 33 prisons scored 53 percent or less,
and 17 of them scored from 32 percent down to eight percent. CMF and PBSP, with scores
of 83 percent, were the only prisons to exceed the 75 percent minimum score for moderate
adherence. The prisons’ very low scores in delivering medications to inmates offset the 90
percent average score they achieved on the other nine, less heavily weighted questions in
medication management.

Compliance problems with medication delivery stem from one of two causes. The fi rst is
failure to administer, provide, or deliver medications in a timely manner. The second is the
medical staff’s failure to document their actions after they provided or delivered medications.
We do not know the extent to which either cause contributed to the low score in medication
delivery. However, records we inspected indicate that this noncompliance is not simply a
documentation problem, but rather a problem of inmates not receiving their medications. For
example, in reviewing the 33 prisons’ administering of Isoniazid, a drug prescribed to treat
latent or active tuberculosis, we found that in 71 percent of the cases, the institutions did not
properly administer the medication. We reviewed the underlying documentation to determine
if this was a documentation problem or if the inmates in fact did not receive the Isoniazid.
We found that in many cases, the medication administration record was either completely
missing from the fi le or completely blank, leaving the possibility that this was a documentation
problem. However, for at least 51 percent of the cases, we found medication administration
forms in the medical fi le that indicated some medications had been given to the inmate, but
sections of the same forms were blank where ordered doses of Isoniazid should have been
recorded as administered. This documentation suggests that the missing dose was not given
to the inmate. We conclude, therefore, that the prisons are not merely failing to document that
inmates received their medications; they are also failing to get the medications to the inmates.
Regardless, both types of failure denote noncompliance and poor performance.
Numerous prisons performed inadequately in the following areas:
• Delivering tuberculosis medications to inmates and ensuring they take them
• Delivering medications to inmates within one day of arrival at the prison
• Providing chronic care medications and following policies when inmates refuse their
medications
• Delivering sick call medications (new orders) to inmates
• Providing medications to inmates upon discharge from an outside hospital
These fi ve areas pertain to the basic delivery of medications to inmates. As suggested by the
poor 35 percent average score achieved by the 33 prisons, medication delivery is a signifi cant
health issue.
See Appendix D-1 for detailed information on questions and scores for this category.
Bureau of Audits, Offi ce of the Inspector General Page 72
State of California • May 2011 Page 73
Medical Category: Access to Providers and Services
Page 1 of 4
The access to providers and services category assesses the prisons’ effectiveness in ensuring
that inmates are seen by primary care providers or provided services for routine, urgent, and
emergency medical needs according to timelines set by CDCR policy. Effective prison medical
care depends on inmates’ access to providers and services; a key indicator of access is timeliness.
To develop our analysis, we used 35 access to providers and services-related questions 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.
Access to providers and services is poor. As shown in Chart 25, the 33 prisons’ average score
for access to providers and services was only 66 percent. While this score is six percentage
points higher than the access to providers and services score reported in our 17-prison
summary report, it is still the second lowest average score within the fi ve general medical
categories. With scores ranging from a high of 87 percent down to 45 percent, prisons are
generally defi cient in providing inmates timely access to the primary care providers and
medical services they need. Only six prisons met or exceeded the 75 percent minimum score
for moderate adherence to medical policies and procedures. HDSP, with a score of 45 percent,
was the worst performer.

Given the low scores shown in Chart 25, we further sorted and analyzed the access to providers
and services data. Specifi cally, we categorized the questions into two types: those that related
or applied to a specifi c medical problem identifi ed for an inmate, and those that related or
applied to various screening and preventive health processes.
The following are examples of each type of question:
Was the inmate’s most recent chronic care visit within the time frame required
Medical problem-related by the degree of control of the inmate’s condition based on his or her prior visit?
(Question 03.076)
Did the prison complete the initial health screening on the same day the inmate
Screening and preventive-related
arrived at the prison? (Question 02.016)
The results of this analysis identifi ed a signifi cant weakness in the prisons’ administration
of correctional health care. The average access to providers and services score for questions
related to inmates with specifi c medical problems was only 62 percent. In contrast, the average
access to providers and services score for screening and preventive-related procedures was 75
percent. (We noted a similar gap in the scores for the fi rst 17 prisons we inspected: 57 percent
for questions related to inmates with specifi c medical problems, and 71 percent for questions
related to screening and preventive-related procedures.) In short, inmates with identifi ed health
problems had greater diffi culty gaining access to the providers and services for which they had
a demonstrable need. Chart 26 shows each prison’s comparative scores for the two types of
access to providers and services.
With scores ranging from 87 percent down to 38 percent, only four prisons exceeded the 75
percent minimum score for moderate adherence in providing timely access to providers and
services when inmates had identifi ed medical problems. These identifi ed medical problems
included chronic diseases as well as other conditions that require specialty care or medical
treatment at outside hospitals. Moreover, inmates often did not have timely access to a physician
or a specialist for the health care management or follow-up required by CDCR policy.
The lowest-scoring prisons in problem-related access to providers and services had particular
diffi culty in getting inmates with medical issues seen by a primary care provider in an
appropriate time frame for both interim and follow-up appointments for specialty services.
Overall, the prisons are relatively profi cient at processing inmates for routine screening and
preventive-related appointments, but they are less profi cient in getting inmates who have
identifi ed medical problems seen by appropriate medical care providers. The failure to provide
timely access to care for inmates with identifi ed medical problems clearly increases risks to the
inmates’ health.

Medical Category: Primary Care Provider Responsibilities
Page 1 of 4
The primary care provider responsibilities category assesses how well the prisons’ physicians,
nurse practitioners, and physician assistants perform their duties and whether processes related
to providing clinical care are consistent with policy. To develop our analysis, we used 29
questions 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.
The 29 questions are of two types: judgment questions and process questions. Judgment
questions evaluate how well the primary care provider applied his or her medical knowledge,
skills, and abilities in providing medical care.6 Process questions assess the primary care
provider’s compliance with established protocols for providing services and maintaining
records. Of the 29 questions, 21 are judgment questions, and eight are process questions.
Some prisons’ primary care providers must improve their performance to achieve moderate
adherence. As shown in Chart 27, the 33 prisons’ average score for primary care provider
responsibilities was 72 percent, which is two percentage points lower than the 74 percent score
we reported in our 17-prison summary report . The 72 percent score is the third lowest average
score in the fi ve general medical categories, and it does not meet the 75 percent minimum score
for moderate adherence to policies and procedures. Only 15 prisons’ scores met or exceeded
the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence, with SCC and CAL tying for the
highest score at 85 percent. KVSP’s score of 51 percent stands out as exceptionally low.
The lower-performing prisons’ scores are driven largely by poor performance in response to
questions in the chronic care component, which represents 61 percent of the total point value
for primary care provider responsibilities.
6 In performing our inspections, judgement questions are answered by physician inspectors. When a physician
inspector takes exception to the judgement of a primary care provider, the physician inspector consults with our
lead physician before confi rming the exception.

Impact of Primary Care Provider Judgment
To determine if the primary care provider judgment questions were more problematic for the
prisons than the process questions, we eliminated the process questions for the data sort shown
in Chart 28 and analyzed the results of the judgment questions exclusively.
Judgment functioned far better than process. As shown in Chart 28, the 33 prisons’ average
score on judgment questions was 75 percent, a score that by itself meets the minimum score
for moderate adherence. However, the prisons’ performance on the process questions reduced
the category score three percentage points to the 72 percent score achieved using both types of
questions. The average score on the process questions was only 63 percent, or 12 percentage
points less. (These scores are consistent with the trend we fi rst noted in our 17-prison summary
report. In that report, the average score on judgment questions was 77 percent, and the average
score on the process questions was 63 percent, or 14 percentage points less.) The larger number
and heavier weight of the judgment questions kept the category score from falling more than
it did. On judgment questions, 17 prisons had scores that met or exceeded the 75 percent
minimum score for moderate adherence.
See Appendix D-3 for detailed information on questions and scores for this category.

Medical Category: Continuity of Care
Page 1 of 2
The continuity of care category evaluates whether or not inmates continue to receive prescribed
medical care when they move within a prison, move between prisons, or return to prison from
receiving specialty services or from being hospitalized. To develop our analysis, we used 19
questions from the following medical care components: health screening, specialty services,
urgent services, outpatient housing unit, inmate transfers, and clinic operations.
Some prisons must improve the continuity of care they provide inmates to achieve moderate
adherence to policies and procedures. As shown in Chart 29, the 33 prisons’ average score for
continuity of care was 76 percent. This score exceeds the 75 percent minimum score for moderate
adherence, and it is the second highest average score in the fi ve general medical categories. The
76 percent average score indicates that the prisons generally provided continuity of medical
services to the inmate-patients in their care. However, while 20 prisons met or exceeded the 75
percent minimum score for moderate adherence, the remaining 13 did not.
Those prisons that failed to achieve moderate adherence in the continuity of care category did
so partly as the result of these problems:
• Failing to transmit accurate health care information on transferring inmates who need
specialty services.
• Failing to document the delivery of medications to arriving inmates or document within
one calendar day the reasons that arriving inmates’ medications were discontinued.
• Failing to meet specifi ed time frames for following up on specialty service consultations.

Medical Category: Nurse Responsibilities
Page 1 of 4
The nurse responsibilities category evaluates how well the prisons’ registered nurses and licensed
vocational nurses perform their duties and whether processes related to providing nursing care
are consistent with policy. To develop our analysis, we used 23 questions from the following
medical care components: clinical services, health screening, urgent services, emergency
services, prenatal care/childbirth/post-delivery, inmate transfers, clinic operations, and inmate
hunger strikes.
The 23 questions are of two types: judgment questions and process questions. Judgment
questions evaluate how well the nurse applied his or her medical knowledge, skills, and abilities
7
in providing nursing care. Process questions assess the nurse’s compliance with established
guidelines for providing services and maintaining records. Seven of the 23 questions are
judgment questions, and 16 are process questions.
Prisons’ nurses performed relatively well. As shown in Chart 30, the 33 prisons’ average
score for nurse responsibilities was 80 percent. This is the same score the nurse responsibilities
category earned in our 17-prison summary report. The 80 percent average score is the highest
average score within the fi ve general medical categories, and it exceeds the 75 percent
minimum score for moderate adherence. Twenty-three of the 33 prisons exceeded the 75
percent minimum score for moderate adherence, with seven of them achieving high adherence
scores of 86 percent or more. CCWF’s score of 94 percent was the highest.
7 In performing our inspections, judgement questions are answered by registered nurse inspectors. When a
registered nurse inspector takes exception to the judgement of a prisonʼs registered nurse, the nurse inspector
consults with another registered nurse inspector or a physician inspector before confi rming the exception.

Impact of Nurse Judgment
To determine if the nurse judgment questions were more problematic for the prisons than the
process questions, we analyzed the results of the judgment questions exclusively.
The impact of judgment questions was substantial. As shown in Chart 31, the 33 prisons’
average score on the judgment questions was 75 percent, which is fi ve percentage points lower
than the average score achieved using both types of questions. The average score for process
questions was 83 percent, meaning that there was an eight percentage point gap between
the average scores for the two types of questions. While all three scores fall in the moderate
adherence range, it is apparent that the 33 prisons’ nurses performed better on process
questions than on judgment questions. This observation contrasts with the one we made in
our 17-prison summary report. In that report, we concluded that one type of question had no
more impact than the other. Our conclusion was based on the fact that for the fi rst 17 prisons
inspected, the nurse judgment average score of 80 percent was the same as the overall nurse
responsibilities score, and that the process question average score of 81 percent was nearly the
same. However, for the last 16 prisons inspected there was a signifi cant drop in the scores on
judgment questions and an increase in the scores on process questions. The average judgment
score for the last 16 prisons was 70 percent, far below the 86 percent the same prisons achieved
on the process questions. Therefore, for all 33 prisons we conclude that the impact of the nurse
judgment questions was substantial.

Conclusion
The results of our fi rst 33 medical inspections demonstrate that the Receiver and CDCR
can improve prisons’ compliance with CDCR medical policies and procedures and medical
community standards in a number of areas. In particular, we note the following results:
• Only nine of the 33 prisons’ overall weighted scores met or exceeded 75 percent, the
Receiver’s minimum score for moderate adherence to medical policies and procedures. The
highest score was FSP’s 83 percent, and FSP is the only prison to achieve moderate or high
adherence in all six of the most heavily weighted components of the medical inspection
program.
• Nearly all of the prisons failed to achieve moderate adherence in three of the six most
heavily weighted components. The average score for chronic care, the most heavily
weighted component, was only 62 percent. Failure to ensure inmates received their
chronic care medications and inadequate documentation of inmates’ clinical histories
were recurring problems. Clinical services, the second most heavily weighted component,
had an average score of only 65 percent. Within this component, we found consistent
problems with getting inmates their prescribed medications and in primary care
providers’ seeing inmates by the appointment dates set by triage nurses. The average
score for specialty services, another heavily weighted component, was only 66 percent.
We found poor performance in providing inmates timely access to specialty services and
prompt follow-up related to those services.
• In other component areas of our inspection program, prisons scored particularly poorly
in preventive services. The average score was only 44 percent, and we found very low
scores in tuberculosis treatment, which can affect the health of inmates and staff alike.
Further, as evidenced by the average score of 57 percent, the prisons performed quite
poorly in monitoring inmates on hunger strikes lasting longer than three days. In access to
health care information the average score was only 64 percent, and only two of the prisons
kept inmates’ medical records updated with recently fi led documents.
• Notwithstanding the problems cited above, the prisons performed well in several
components. Their average scores were more than 86 percent in fi ve components,
indicating high adherence with medical policies and procedures. The 96 percent score
in staffi ng levels and training refl ects positively on the prisons’ efforts to provide
around-the-clock physician and nursing services, and to orient and train nurses on face-
to-face triage techniques in a prison setting. The 93 percent score in chemical agent
contraindications and the 92 percent score in clinic operations are also noteworthy.
• In the 20 components of health care that we examined, prisons achieved an average score
of 86 percent or higher on 69 of the 165 scored questions. However, the prisons scored
consistently poorly on 36 questions, averaging 60 percent or less, and in some cases
substantially less. This 60 percent mark, the Receiver’s threshold for a formal corrective
action plan, indicates areas of prison medical care that require signifi cant improvement.
• When sorting 100 of the questions into fi ve general medical categories, we found
recurring problems in how the prisons managed inmates’ medication. The average score in
Bureau of Audits, Offi ce of the Inspector General Page 88
medication management was only 59 percent because the prisons scored only 35 percent on
questions related to medication delivery. Inmates’ access to providers and services was also
of concern, with timeliness of access the main problem. The average score for this category
was only 66 percent. In contrast, nurse responsibilities had an average score of 80 percent
and continuity of care had an average score of 76 percent, making them the only general
medical categories to exceed the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence.
Primary care provider responsibilities, with an average score of 72 percent, came close to
the 75 percent minimum score for moderate adherence. However, the 63 percent score on
process questions offset the 75 percent score on judgement questions, which by itself met
the Receiver’s minimum score for moderate adherence.
We fi nd that the wide variation among component scores within prisons, and the wide variation
among prisons’ average component scores, suggest that the Receiver has not yet implemented
a system that ensures that CDCR policies and procedures and selected medical community
standards are consistently followed throughout the prison system. The higher scores in some
component areas and medical categories, however, demonstrate that system-wide improvement
can be achieved.

Appendix Preface
This report contains the following four appendices:
APPENDIX A: This appendix contains the defi nitions of the 20 components we use in our
medical inspection program.
APPENDIX B: This appendix is a synopsis of each prison’s scores on the 20 components in
our medical inspection program.
APPENDIX C: This appendix contains the 33 prisons’ scores for each question in the 20
components and cites the text of each question. In addition, for each question the appendix
discloses the possible points for the question and the points received for the question. It also
shows the 33-prison average score for each question and each prison’s total score for each
component.
APPENDIX D: This appendix contains the 33 prisons’ scores for each question in the
fi ve medical categories and cites the text of each question. In addition, for each question
the appendix discloses the possible points for the question and the points received for the
question. It also shows the 33-prison average score for each question and each prison’s total
score for each medical category.
Blank scores in Appendices C and D:
The reader may occasionally encounter blank spaces in Appendix C and Appendix D. The
spaces are blank for two possible reasons. The fi rst reason is that the question does not apply
to the institution. For example, 16 of the 33 prisons did not have outpatient housing units.
Therefore, the ten questions in the outpatient housing unit component would not apply to these
16 prisons. The second reason is that the question does not apply to any sample items selected
for inspection. For example, Question 15.134 asks, “Did the institution properly respond to all
active cases of TB discovered in the last six months?” Because only three of the 33 prisons had
discovered an active case of tuberculosis in the six months preceding the inspection, only those
prisons received a score for Question 15.134. When questions do not apply to a prison, we
exclude them from our scoring calculations.
Rounding in Appendices B, C, and D:
We have rounded the percentage scores in Appendices B, C, and D to the nearest whole
number. In Appendices C and D, the points received for each question are displayed to the
nearest tenth of a point. However, our computer-based scoring system carries the points
received calculation to multiple decimal points before calculating the percentage score.
Accordingly, we have included the percentage score each prison earned on each of the
applicable questions from its inspection report. As a result, the reader may notice slightly
different percentage scores among prisons for questions with the same possible points and the
same points received. In addition, totals may not sum due to this rounding.
