Domestic violence; directing the District Attorneys Council to develop and implement a domestic violence forensic exam pilot program; codification; effective date.

HB 2606 creates a five-year pilot program requiring Oklahoma's District Attorneys Council to establish domestic violence forensic exams in counties with over 100,000 residents. The program funds qualified health care professionals (physicians or nurses trained in domestic violence exams) to provide free forensic medical exams for victims of domestic violence assault. Participating counties must create a Domestic Violence Examination Fund, with payments capped at $200 per exam through the Crime Victims Compensation Board, requiring signatures from both the victim/guardian and the provider. This directly affects domestic violence victims in qualifying large counties and the healthcare providers conducting these exams.
