With the consent of the victim of a sexual assault, 12 the hospital emergency room department shall provide or arrange for an 13 appointment for medical follow-up related to HIV post-exposure prophy- 14 laxis and other care as appropriate, and inform the victim that payment 15 assistance for such care may be available from the office of victim 16 services pursuant to the provisions of article twenty-two of the execu- 17 tive law; and EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD04742-06-9A. 1204--A 2 1 § 2. Subdivision 13 of section 631 of the executive law, as amended by 2 section 3 of part HH of chapter 57 of the laws of 2018, is amended to 3 read as follows: 4 13. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, rule, or regulation to 5 the contrary, when any New York state accredited hospital, accredited 6 sexual assault examiner program, or licensed health care provider 7 furnishes services to any sexual assault survivor, including but not 8 limited to a health care forensic examination in accordance with the sex 9 offense evidence collection protocol and standards established by the 10 department of health, such hospital, sexual assault examiner program, or 11 licensed healthcare provider shall provide such services to the person 12 without charge and shall bill the office directly. The office, in 13 consultation with the department of health, shall define the specific 14 services to be covered by the sexual assault forensic exam reimbursement 15 fee, which must include at a minimum forensic examiner services, hospi- 16 tal or healthcare facility services related to the exam, and related 17 laboratory tests and necessary pharmaceuticals; including but not limit- 18 ed to HIV post-exposure prophylaxis provided by a hospital emergency 19 room at the time of the forensic rape examination pursuant to paragraph 20 (c) of subdivision one of section twenty-eight hundred five-i of the 21 public health law. Follow-up HIV post-exposure prophylaxis costs shall 22 [continue to] be billed by the health care provider to the office 23 directly and reimbursed [according to established office procedure] by 24 the office directly. The office, in consultation with the department of 25 health, shall also generate the necessary regulations and forms for the 26 direct reimbursement procedure. The rate for reimbursement shall be the 27 amount of itemized charges not exceeding eight hundred dollars, [to be28reviewed and adjusted annually by the office] provided, however, the 29 office shall, in consultation with the department of health, annually 30 review and determine if a higher rate for reimbursement for itemized 31 charges exceeding eight hundred dollars is feasible and appropriate 32 based on the actual cost of reimbursable expenses, and adjust such rate 33 for reimbursement accordingly. The hospital, sexual assault examiner 34 program, or licensed health care provider must accept this fee as 35 payment in full for these specified services. No additional billing of 36 the survivor for said services is permissible. A sexual assault survivor 37 may voluntarily assign any private insurance benefits to which she or he 38 is entitled for the healthcare forensic examination, in which case the 39 hospital or healthcare provider may not charge the office; provided, 40 however, in the event the sexual assault survivor assigns any private 41 health insurance benefit, such coverage shall not be subject to annual 42 deductibles or coinsurance or balance billing by the hospital, sexual 43 assault examiner program or licensed health care provider. A hospital, 44 sexual assault examiner program or licensed health care provider shall, 45 at the time of the initial visit, request assignment of any private 46 health insurance benefits to which the sexual assault survivor is enti- 47 tled on a form prescribed by the office; provided, however, such sexual 48 assault survivor shall be advised orally and in writing that he or she 49 may decline to provide such information regarding private health insur- 50 ance benefits if he or she believes that the provision of such informa- 51 tion would substantially interfere with his or her personal privacy or 52 safety and in such event, the sexual assault forensic exam fee shall be 53 paid by the office. Such sexual assault survivor shall also be advised 54 that providing such information may provide additional resources to pay 55 for services to other sexual assault victims. If he or she declines to 56 provide such health insurance information, he or she shall indicate suchA. 1204--A 3 1 decision on the form provided by the hospital, sexual assault examiner 2 program or licensed health care provider, which form shall be prescribed 3 by the office. 4 § 3.
