Governor wants to put UC in charge of prison health

kgo
By ABC7
SACRAMENTO, CA

Under the plan, university doctors would treat state prisoners using a video link-up.

It could save the state $12 billion over a decade.

Texas and Georgia have a similar arrangement between prisons and their universities, and they spend about a quarter of what California spends on each prisoner's health.
