Chair Brooks-Powers asks how NYPD and DOC share pregnancy information
Brooks-Powers asks how medical information is shared between NYPD and DOC when custody changes. Chard says NYPD does not share medical information with DOC and people go through medical screening at the courthouse.
Going back to screenings for pregnancy, postpartum status, how is medical information shared between NYPD and DLC when someone changes custody?
Sorry, that's between NYPD and...
Department of Correction.
Sorry, can you repeat the question?
Sure.
How is medical information shared between NYPD and DLC when someone changes custody?
So when they're going from being in custody with the NYPD, they're being transferred over to the Department of Correction to be in custody.
How is that information shared for an individual that is pregnant?
NYPD doesn't share medical information with us.
They would go through the medical screenings that are happening at the courthouse.
But is there any documentation or anything to denote, like, this person in custody is pregnant or any type of dynamic related to that condition?
Not that I'm aware of.
