Beginning July 1, 2007, a victim of sexual assault/rape will no longer be responsible for the cost of the sexual assault medical examination to gather evidence for a possible prosecution. A new law authorizes the Attorney General to provide reimbursement directly to the hospital or clinic where the examination is performed.
Note: The reimbursement form should be completed and signed at the time of the examination. The reimbursement form opens as a two-page pdf file. Page 1 is the form, page 2 the instructions. We recommend that medical providers print several copies of the form and instructions and keep them with the Sexual Assault Evidence Collection Kits.
