Administration May Cut Funds to Hospitals Offering Gender Care to Kids

UNITED STATES, JUN 30 – The administration targets hospitals providing hormone therapy and surgeries to minors, with nine major children’s hospitals under review and some already scaling back services, officials said.

  • The Trump administration is considering withdrawing government financial support from medical centers offering gender-affirming care to minors starting in mid-2025.
  • This plan follows growing federal scrutiny, including letters demanding data from nine major children's hospitals, amid claims that gender treatments are experimental and harmful.
  • Hospitals such as Children's Hospital of Los Angeles have closed programs citing loss of federal funds, while others risk legal actions or are defiant against funding cuts.
  • Officials warn that using this 'nuclear option' would force drastic cutbacks, as many hospitals rely heavily on Medicaid and federal money—over 65 percent for some facilities.
  • These developments suggest increasing regulatory enforcement concerning gender-affirming care and potential widespread impacts on access to medically necessary treatments for transgender youth.
