Bill overview
This bill requires health insurance plans to cover gender detransition procedures alongside gender transition procedures. It mandates that healthcare providers who offer gender transition services also provide coverage for detransition care. Insurers must report data on detransition procedures to the Department of Insurance, including the number of claims, patient demographics, and locations, while protecting patient privacy. The bill also establishes a process for state agencies to quickly update official documents, such as licenses and permits, to reflect an individual’s gender identity during a detransition process.
