SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Payment of medical fees. Provides that the director of the local department of social services may approve reimbursement of the costs of evidence collection in cases involving child sexual and physical abuse. Under current law, only the attorney for the Commonwealth may do so, leaving no reimbursement in cases where no criminal charges are filed, but instead are referred by child protective services units and handled administratively.
