“Secretary Kennedy cannot unilaterally change medical standards by posting a document online,” #NYAG #LetitiaJames, one of the #states in the lawsuit, said in a statement Tuesday. “And no one should lose access to medically necessary #health care because their #federal government tried to interfere in decisions that belong in doctors’ offices.”

Part of the underpinning of that plan is an unironic declaration by #RFKJr that gender-related treatments for minors “fail to meet professional recognized standards of health care.” In the suit, the states argue that the declaration is unlawful & a government overreach.

Supporters & opponents of #transgender rights agree that, taken together, the forthcoming #hospital rules will make access to pediatric #GenderAffirmingCare across the country extremely difficult, if not impossible. The care is already banned in 27 #states. The proposed rules will start a comment period after they are entered into the Federal Register; they will not take effect immediately.

Drs Makary & Bhattacharya are also expected to make announcements about #healthcare that #transgender young people receive.

The pivot to the topic of transgender minors comes one day after #Republicans in the #House of Representatives passed a package of #health care bills that do not extend subsidies for people who buy #HealthInsurance in #AffordableCareAct plans.

#Medicaid provides #healthcare coverage to #LowIncome children & adults in the US #Medicare is the #health program for Americans over 65 [ #seniors] & #disabled people. Virtually every #hospital in the country takes Medicare & relies on it, so the rule would have a wide-ranging effect.

In October, NPR exclusively reported on 2 new proposed rules for hospitals that #DrOz is expected to announce Thursday. The first would prohibit #doctors & #hospitals from receiving federal #Medicaid reimbursement for #medical care provided to #transgender patients younger than age 18. The second would block all Medicaid & #Medicare funding for ANY services at hospitals that provide pediatric #GenderAffirmingCare.
