The St. Clair County Commission voted unanimously April 6 to award RFP #2026-34 for inmate medical services to 3C South and approved the contract pending review by the County Attorney.

The commission recorded that Quality Correctional Health Care (QCHC), the county's current inmate medical services provider, submitted notice of contract termination effective April 29, 2026.
