CHEYENNE (AP) -- An independent audit of health services provided to Wyoming prison inmates reported improvement in the system since the last quarterly audit in October. The latest audit found that in December, only 5.8 percent of incoming inmates were not being given health screenings within 24 hours of arrival and only 1.6 percent of new arrivals were not screened within a week, according to the Department of Corrections. That was down from 36.2 percent and 27.3 percent, respectively, in October.
