As the costs of prisoner illness and health services use mount, research should focus on factors that predict these outcomes. This cross-sectional study, therefore, examines predictors of (a) prisoner illness, (b) use of physical health services, and (c) mental health services among 661 incarcerated males with a drug abuse history. These three in-prison outcomes were significantly predicted by a number of demographic, past illness, past health services use, and drug abuse history factors, all ascertainable at prison intake. If these relationships are confirmed in subsequent prospective studies, measuring these predictors may offer a simple, cost-effective approach for estimating future prisoner illness and demand for health services.
