Payer of last resort
The Crime Victims Compensation Program is the "payer of last resort". This means we can pay only after primary insurance has paid, if you have any.
Examples of primary insurance:
- Your own medical insurance.
- Public health care such as medical coupons or VA.
- Auto, life, or homeowner's insurance policies.
Primary insurance
Bills must first go to the primary insurer for payment.
After the primary insurance has been exhausted, then services providers bill the Crime Victims Compensation Program.
Reimbursement rate
The Crime Victims Comp Program Fee Schedule is used to reimburse providers.
Bills
Do I pay any of my bills?
No. If you are receiving treatment for conditions covered under your approved claim, you shouldn't be billed for any services. Service providers are required to bill the CVCP and we pay them directly.
By law, you aren't responsible for the difference between the amount the provider charges and the rate we pay.
