Requires certain providers to perform intimate partner violence screenings and all health care professionals to take certain actions to prevent perpetrator of intimate partner violence from obtaining copies of victim's medical record.

This New Jersey bill (S 2006) requires specific healthcare providers - such as physicians, nurses, and midwives - to conduct regular, private screenings for intimate partner violence during patient visits. If a screening suggests abuse, providers must document findings, immediately provide victims with local resources and referrals, and ensure patients reapprove who can access their medical records (preventing abusers from obtaining them). The bill mandates that the state’s health and children’s departments update resource lists biennially for providers. It applies directly to patients experiencing intimate partner violence and healthcare professionals treating them.
