Trump administration finalizes rule restricting trans healthcare for minors on Medicaid
The Trump administration on Tuesday released a final rule blocking the use of federal Medicaid dollars for transgender healthcare for minors, as well as barring Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) plans from paying for gender-affirming procedures for minors.
The final rule released by The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) bars Medicaid dollars from paying for what it refers to as "sex-rejecting procedures for children under 18" as well as blocking CHIP agencies from paying for the same procedures for people under the age of 19.
