Approval - Request to move funds from Jail-Lapse Salaries to Inmate Medical to cover expected shortage for remainder of FY 23/24. The Over Cost Pool Limit (OCP) for Southern Health Partners for April was higher than the previous months due to two inmates with serious medical conditions that required hospitalization which resulted in an invoice that was almost quadruple the previous month's cost. Because of this, the budget line may fall short for May and June's OCP invoices.
