Trafficking Victims Reporting Law
Summary
The Trafficking Victims Protection Act mandates hospitals to report suspected trafficking victims within 24 hours, but it does not apply retroactively to cases from 10 years ago. For medical malpractice or negligence, California and Nevada have statutes of limitations of 1 year from discovery or 3 years from injury. Potential legal avenues include negligence or failure to report, and civil remedies under the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act. California Business and Professions Code § 805 requires reporting actions affecting patient care, which could apply if negligence is proven. Documentation in medical records of a patients living conditions could support a negligence claim if healthcare providers failed to act.Full Conversation
