This action is for the continuation of medical care for our inmate population. Our Current Comprehensive

Medical Contract expires on June 30, 2024. The Field Acquisition Office (FAO) is currently in negotiations for a new multi-year agreement. FPC Morgantown was advised by FAO to continue services through Seven

Corners until a new agreement is reached with a provider. This will continue continuity of care and also continue to keep our scheduling process streamlined, which will also be a benefit to the inmate population and

Government.
