This bill mandates the posting of signs and distribution of pamphlets in emergency rooms to provide information about the Victims of Crime Compensation Office (VCCO). The Commissioner of Health, in collaboration with the Attorney General, is tasked with developing and producing these materials, which must be clearly written and easily understandable. The information included will cover the services and benefits offered by the VCCO, contact details, and the procedures for filing a compensation claim.

The bill specifies that these pamphlets and signs must be made available in every emergency department of general hospitals and in satellite emergency departments licensed under existing law. This initiative aims to ensure that victims of crime are informed about the resources available to them at a critical time. The act is set to take effect on the first day of the fourth month following its enactment.
