Illinois HB4665 mandates the Department of Corrections to report annually on hospice and palliative care for terminally ill inmates.
Illinois HB4665 amends the Unified Code of Corrections to require the Department of Corrections to publish an annual report on its website detailing hospice and palliative care for committed persons. The report must include demographic data, types of services offered, eligibility criteria, and the cost of end-of-life care. It also mandates data on the number of inmates receiving care, the timing of care, and the outcomes of those who died. The report aims to provide transparency on the Department's approach to end-of-life care for terminally ill inmates.
