The complete issue version includes links from table of contents entries to all articles listed in the contents above, and linked article continuations, to facilitate reading. Also includes additional brief articles that review the recent GAO Report on the impact of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on state jails and prisons; a deliberate indifference claim against a physician who stood by as police officers brutally beat a detainee; and a look at “Unintended Consequences of Dental Care”—what happens when partial emergency care to relieve immediate suffering is left without adequate follow-up, resulting in even more serious permanent damage.

Keywords: Deliberate indifference standard; specialist referrals; inmate dental care; continuing methadone treatments in jail
