Administration May Cut Funds to Hospitals Offering Gender Care to Kids
- The Trump administration is evaluating measures to withdraw federal Medicaid funding from hospitals that offer gender-affirming care to minors, increasing regulatory scrutiny of these programs.
- This action follows an earlier executive order aiming to end chemical and surgical treatments on children, amid concerns over long-term effects and medical community profit motives.
- Nine leading pediatric hospitals were asked by federal officials to submit information regarding their practices involving gender transition procedures, including surgeries, hormone treatments, and the use of puberty-delaying medications; in response to this federal inquiry, some of these hospitals have either reduced or halted their gender-related healthcare services.
- Children's Hospital of Los Angeles, which gets over 65% of its revenue from federal funding, cited CMS inquiry as the reason for ending its gender-care program; CMS is also exploring blocking Medicaid payments to non-compliant hospitals.
- These measures suggest increased federal and state alignment to restrict gender treatments for minors, potentially leading to significant cutbacks or removal of hospitals from Medicaid funding.
