Correctional Managed Health Care

Welcome to the website for the Texas Correctional Health Care Program.

The Texas correctional managed health care program represents a legislatively established partnership between the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) and the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston (UTMB).  The partnership is governed by the Correctional Managed Health Care Committee (CMHCC) and is responsible for providing comprehensive health care services to all adult offenders incarcerated in Texas state prisons and state jails.

We welcome you to explore our website using the links above to learn more about our program.

Our Mission

The CMHCC’s mission is to develop a statewide managed health care network to address three key goals: 

• providing TDCJ offenders with timely access to  care consistent with correctional standards;

• maintaining a quality of care that meets accepted standards of care; and,

• managing the costs of delivering comprehensive health care services to a growing and aging offender population.
