031 Statewide Misdemeanant Confinement Program Terms and Conditions March 21, 2012 Page 2 of 4 The daily housing rate will be paid by the SMCP to a "receiving" county for an SMCP inmate for each day, to include the date of arrival but not the date of release. 2. Transportation and Supervision of SMCP Inmates "Sending" counties are expected to transport SMCP inmates to the "receiving" county. A sheriffs office that is authorized to transport a SMCP inmate will be paid for transportation and supervision of the SMCP inmate: (1) to another county's jail; (2) to an out -of -jail medical services provider; or (3) while supervising the out -of -jail inmate while the medical services are being provided. The mileage and driving time will be calculated by the SMCP's automated system for transportation from county jail to county jail, or from county jail to a medical services provider. Payment at the established SMCP rate will be made for only one officer to provide transportation or supervision, unless special circumstances dictate additional personnel. 3. Medical Services for SMCP Inmates In -jail medical services and all other housing related services for SMCP inmates are provided by the "receiving" county for which the "receiving" county is paid the daily housing rate by the SMCP. Out -of -jail medical expenses for SMCP inmates should be billed by the medical services provider directly to the SMCP. The medical services provider will be paid directly by the SMCP from the Statewide Misdemeanant Confinement Fund. 4. Notification to the SMCP of an Eligible Inmate When an inmate receives a sentence of 91 to 180 days, the sheriff's office in the county of conviction should notify the SMCP using the forms and procedures described in the SMCP training classes. Reimbursement for a SMCP inmate will not be made by the SMCP to a county until the SMCP receives the appropriate form(s) and supporting document(s).
