Further to your concern, I would say that, in many cases, because of the tremendous costs, families are forced to take out bank loans or mortgages. You talked about the trauma and asked whether this would make things a bit easier. Just having to make those payments every month prolongs the traumatic experience. It is akin to rubbing salt in the wound for years until you've paid it all back.
Regardless, if we're talking about psychological support, therapy and so forth, that would be a lot right there. Clearly, if we can help the wound heal instead of covering it up with a band-aid, it will help the victim get through their ordeal.
