Which of the following is listed as a medical option in OIMS?

• A. Diabetes
• B. Eye disorder/deafness
• C. Suicide attempts
• D. Physical disability

Answer: (B)

Medical options in OIMS are specific health-related categories used to flag the kinds of accommodations or services an offender may need. Eye disorder or deafness is listed as a medical option because vision or hearing impairments directly affect how supervision, communication, and program participation are managed, so staff can plan appropriate supports (like interpreters or accessible materials). Diabetes is a medical condition tracked in health records but not necessarily labeled as a medical option category. Suicide attempts relate to safety and mental-health risk rather than a medical option. Physical disability is broad and may be noted in other areas, but the system specifically designates eye disorder/deafness as the medical option.
