Parole of mentally ill inmate--Continuation of treatment as condition

If the Board of Pardons and Paroles considers an inmate sentenced pursuant to § 23A-27-38 for parole, the board shall consult with the treating facility at which the inmate is being treated or from which the inmate has been discharged concerning the information required by § 23A-27-39 . If the inmate is placed on parole by the board, treatment recommended by the treating facility shall be made a condition of parole. An inmate's failure to continue treatment, except by agreement of the treating facility and the board, is basis for commencing a parole revocation hearing and grounds for parole revocation.
