Office of Clinical Services (Maryland DPSCS)

The Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services Office of Clinical Services page, sitting under the Office of Health and Treatment Services, describes the health care delivery system covering comprehensive primary, secondary, specialty and hospitalization services for incarcerated people at all DPSCS facilities. Medical, dental and pharmacy services are supplied through separate competitively bid contracts with private providers, with direct-service clinicians located on site in numbers matched to the population. The Office of Clinical Services and Incarcerated Individual Health continuously monitors the private providers to ensure contract compliance and quality of care. The medical and nursing contractor works alongside the dental, pharmaceutical and mental health contractors and with departmental social work, psychology, case management and substance use programs. The page carries the Office of Health and Treatment Services contact details and links to mental health, social work, substance use treatment and the ADA complaint process.
