Remember the Palin Rape Kit Lie?

Apparently this has been going on in NJ for years...

Health care providers may soon be formally barred from directly billing sexual assault victims for forensic evidence collection services.

The federal government requires that the providers be reimbursed for such services, but all invoices are supposed to go to designated government agencies for review and payment.

However, victims frequently receive such invoices due to administrative errors or attempts to get payment from a victim's insurance company.

The measure -- which was overwhelmingly passed by both houses of the Legislature and now awaits Gov. Chris Christie's consideration-- would clarify that victims should never receive such invoices.

Under the proposal, victims couldn't be billed for services directly associated with forensic sexual assault examinations.
