Bill overview
This bill allows the Department of Corrections (DOC) and the Department of Children and Families (DCF) in New Jersey to hire vendors for medical and dental services instead of relying solely on state employees. Currently, state law restricts the vendors they can use, which can increase costs. This change aims to improve efficiency and potentially lower healthcare expenses for the state by allowing the selection of the most advantageous proposals.
