Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The addition of CPA (Child Physical Abuse) and Battered Children Syndrome as clinical diagnoses marked the medical community as claims makers. This meant that doctors had a way of diagnosing and reporting instances of child abuse, which they were previously not as involved in. This led to an increase in their role as mandatory reporters and serving as expert witnesses in legal cases related to child abuse.
