The OSA has been awarded a 1.8 million-dollar grant to install the IRIS Scan and Med-Verify systems in 38 county jails.
The I.R.I.S.™ and Med-Verify Plus™ data sharing technology and platform will enable the Sheriffs and administrators who operate these county jails to effectively and efficiently detect and mitigate COVID-19 and its variants (and other infectious diseases now and in the future). The system will be integrated with each jail’s existing Jail Management System and, if requested, their medical/healthcare system (electronic or paper-based) to virtually eliminate duplicate data entry and introduction of errors. The county Sheriffs and Jail Administrators will use the national, real-time
I.R.I.S.™ biometric ID system at Intake/Booking to quickly capture a digital photograph of the individual’s irises.
