This violence results in nearly 2.0 million injuries and nearly 1,300 deaths. The costs of IPV against women exceed an estimated $5.8 billion annually. These costs include nearly $4.1 billion in the direct costs of medical care and mental health care and nearly $1.8 billion in the indirect costs of lost productivity and the present value of lifetime earnings.
