abstract="Until recently, domestic violence was considered a criminal justice or social service problem. However, physicians see victims in emergency settings and clinics with complaints and symptoms that go beyond physical injuries. A study by a Minnesota health plan shows that, on average, a victim of domestic violence costs the health care system $1,434 more per year than a nonvictim. This article discusses the prevalence of domestic violence and the variety of presentations. Guidelines for screening, what to do with a positive response, when to call the police, and how to document and code are reviewed, as are issues unique to older victims of domestic violence.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
