New Jersey A2007 mandates intimate partner violence screenings and restricts medical record access by perpetrators.

New Jersey A2007 requires specific health care providers to conduct periodic intimate partner violence screenings for patients, in line with nationally recognized guidelines. These screenings must occur in private settings, potentially using telemedicine or self-administered tools. If a provider identifies a potential victim, they must provide resources and referrals during the same visit. Additionally, all health care professionals must ensure that perpetrators of intimate partner violence cannot access the victim's medical records.
