the 2005 violence against women act requires states to ensure that victims receive access to a forensic examination free of charge regardless of whether the victim chooses to report a sexual assault to law enforcement or cooperate with the criminal-justice system. all states must comply with the vawa 2005 requirement regarding forensic examination in order to receive stop violence against women formula grant program (stop program) funds. under 42 u.s.c. § 3796gg-4, a state is not entitled to funds under the stop program unless the state or another governmental entity "incurs the full out-of-pocket cost of forensic medical exams ... for victims of sexual assault." this means that, if no other governmental entity or insurance carrier pays for the exam, states are required to pay for forensic exams if they wish to receive stop program funds. the goal of this provision is to ensure that the victim is not required to pay for the exam. the effect of the vawa 2005 forensic examination requirement is to allow victims time to decide whether to pursue their case. because a sexual assault is a traumatic event, some victims are unable to decide whether they want to cooperate with law enforcement in the immediate aftermath of a sexual assault. because forensic evidence can be lost as time progresses, such victims should be encouraged to have the evidence collected as soon as possible without deciding to initiate a report. this provision ensures victims receive timely medical treatment.
