Text of Recommendation
The BOP should refine their policies or formal procedures to ensure that inmates who report serious medical symptoms or receive critical test results are provided regular follow-up medical care. As part of these policies or formal procedures, the BOP should consider requiring each institution to develop an "urgent list" of inmates who have urgent medical needs to ensure they receive consistent follow-up medical care.
