The state shall reimburse any county of this state for expenses the county incurs for the detention of a parolee pursuant to §§ 24-15-19 and 24-15-21 . The reimbursement may not exceed ninety-five dollars per day, unless the county incurs costs for the parolee's medication and medical care, in which case those costs must also be reimbursed in full.

No county may be reimbursed by the state for costs incurred from detaining a parolee held for criminal charges unrelated to the parolee's current conviction and sentence.
