Service Charter<br />

_FOR PRISONS<br />

This brochure intends to be for users a means by which<br />

information is provided on the manner of managing<br />

one’s health during the period of detention at this prison.<br />

Prime Minister’s Decree 01/04/2008 has stipulated the<br />

move of the Prison Health System from the Ministry<br />

of Justice to the National Health Care System, thereby<br />

reasserting the principle of recognition of full parity<br />

of health care system between free persons and<br />

detained persons. The prisoners who resort to Health<br />

Care services have identical rights and duties as free<br />

citizens, in conformity with the prison system in force<br />

and in any event in accordance with what is laid down<br />

by the Constitution.<br />

Inmates of the prison are exempted from contributing<br />

to pay for health care services, save for performances<br />

not covered by the Essential Assistance Levels (EAL).<br />

Health at this prison is ensured by an integrated system<br />

between the Prison Management and especially the<br />

Umbria 2 Local Health Care Unit Management through<br />

its own resources.
