Amends TCA Section 55-10-419.
Tennessee HB1343 amends the electronic monitoring indigency fund provisions by modifying the criteria for determining indigency for individuals ordered to use ignition interlock devices and alternative devices following a DUI conviction.

Additionally, it updates the reimbursement process for providers by requiring specific documentation from the court and local governments regarding a person's indigency status.
