MI SB1190

Increases the maximum reimbursement rate for sexual assault medical forensic examinations from $600 to $1,200, with the facility/examination portion increased from $400 to $600 and adds a new $150 reimbursement for colposcopy or high-resolution digital photography.

Prohibits health care providers from billing sexual assault victims for any examination costs, including insurance deductibles, co-pays, claim denials, or out-of-pocket expenses.

Requires health care providers to obtain a victim's express written consent before submitting claims to insurance carriers, and allows victims to decline if they believe submission would interfere with privacy or safety.

Specifies that a victim's request for a sexual assault evidence kit satisfies law enforcement reporting and cooperation requirements under victim compensation law, removing the requirement for victims to participate in the criminal justice system to receive a forensic examination.

Protects victim confidentiality by making information identifying sexual assault victims exempt from disclosure under freedom of information laws and inadmissible as evidence in civil, criminal, or administrative proceedings, except with consent or for fraud investigations.
