ICE hasn't paid any 3rd party provider of healthcare for detainees since October: [View all]

The population of migrants held at ICE facilities has exploded. Under the law, ICE is required to provide necessary medical care for this population.

ICE often uses third-party providers. ICE, however, has not paid any third-party providers for medical care for detainees since October 3, 2025.
