What happen if you develop terminal cancer while on passing row? How do you acquire treated? Pain meds? Counciling?

I don't know anyone in top-security prison, but I was in recent times wondering if a person have access to all the healthcare resources a common person have. Do they let your cancer run its course til release if you are on death row, or do they do their best to treat you? Do you enjoy access to pain meds, or is that considered contraband? If you own insurance, does it matter? Do you win to see your own DR., or just a prison medic? I go thru nursing school, but never really worked as a nurse and I hold always be curious.

They are taken to hospital and put under guard and treated indistinguishable way that a free individual would be.
They are kept alive so they can be killed...at hand have be instances that someone tries to commit suicide and is saved to be executed.
Yep, the state picks up the tab for treatment.
There be a story in the word a few years ago about a demise row inmate with just a few weeks left until he be scheduled for execution - and he be in liver ruin. His sister was a polite tissue match, but the problem be that if they decided to remove a lobe of her liver and transplant it into him, who would repay for her surgery? Because he was a ward of the state, his portion would be covered, but the sister didn't enjoy the money or any insurance. She wasn't indigent so she couldn't get the surgery covered by Medicaid. I suggest he ended up dying back his execution.
