In any case in which the defendant is convicted of
assault, battery, or assault with a deadly weapon on a victim 65
years of age or older, and the defendant knew or reasonably should
have known the elderly status of the victim, the court, as a
condition of  probation, shall order the defendant to make
restitution for the costs of medical or psychological treatment
incurred by the victim as a result of the crime, and that the
defendant seek and maintain legitimate employment and apply that
portion of his or her earnings specified by the court toward those
costs.
   The defendant shall be entitled to a hearing, concerning any
modification of the amount of restitution, based on the costs of
medical and psychological treatment incurred by the victim subsequent
to the issuance of the order of probation.
