This document summarizes a paper that argues rape should be recognized as a health issue to allow survivors to be compensated through health insurance rather than having to file a police report. It discusses the long-term physical and mental health consequences survivors face, issues with the criminal justice system, and complex victim compensation systems. The document outlines the history of rape reform legislation in the US and examines research on survivors' interactions with legal, medical, and social agencies. It concludes that due to the ineffectiveness of the criminal justice system and immediate medical needs, health insurance coverage for injuries from rape would better assist survivors' healing process.
