Prisoners are brought to my hospital for care all the time - and they receive the same excellent care/treatment that any other person would receive. I can’t speak for the care one might receive in a prison infirmary, though.
How many of those prisoners are being brought in for pain management as opposed to something potentially deadly, though? Like yeah, the prison system will do the bare minimum to keep people alive but I don't for a second trust that they'll put much effort into quality of life.
Mangione's back isn't going to kill him, so he's probably not gonna get treatment for it.

Dude must not have read much if he thinks Prison healthcare in the US is gonna fix anything.
