Oregon Poised To Force Health Insurers To Cover Trans Genital Surgeries for Children—or Risk Losing Their Licenses

Oregon officials are set to require health insurers, both public and private, to cover procedures like sex-change surgeries and cross-sex hormones for all ages. Those that fail to do so risk losing their state licenses.

The proposed rule from Oregon's Department of Consumer and Business Services relies on the latest standards of care developed by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), which called transgender genital surgeries and other procedures "medically necessary" to justify expanding insurance coverage.

The policy change stems from a 2023 law that made Oregon one of several so-called trans sanctuaries, guaranteeing that minors could receive puberty blockers and chemical or surgical sex changes. The rule, set to take effect next year, dictates "what insurance companies are required to cover and how they provide that coverage," according to Department of Consumer and Business Services spokesman Mark Peterson.

While Oregon won’t be the first state to require insurers to cover gender procedures, it will be the among the first to cite, on its own accord, WPATH's latest standards of care in a statewide rule................

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I thought this tranny cult died with the election, but it looks like we will deal with it for a while.

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
A part of me agrees with Megan C, just let every lunatic liberal get sterilized, and nothing lost there.

But the fact is, many are raised in liberal households and end up conservative.  Ronald Reagan was a Democrat, not sure what kind of household he was raised in, but he switched parties and became one of the most revered Republicans of all time.  I voted for him twice.

I myself grew up in a staunch Democrat household, a union household on top of that.  When I ran for public office, as a registered Democrat, and I also got to run on the Republican ticket during the primary, (one gets to run in both parties' primary for school board in Pennsylvania), my first presentation was to the community I resided in, the Republican Party committee.

Next day, I receive a call from one of the members on the committee, excited about what I had to say, and she said to me, "you are not a Democrat, you are conservative, and you are as Republican as I am.  You need to change your registration, for I see a bright future for you in politics."  I got elected by 87%, and put a slate of five together to displace the incumbents.  We all won.  And I have since long ago become a registered Republican.

I consider it criminal to perform surgeries on anyone under 18 years of age for gender reassignment, and even 25 years of age, for that is how long scientists repeatedly claim it takes one to mature mentally.  We are talking about a mutilation that is permanent, and leaves the one receiving the surgery sterile for life.  I doubt most comprehend the significance of that until they are 25.  Many do not contemplate reproduction until they are in their 20s any way.  Prior to that, it is a single focus on physical pleasure in our society.  Virtually no contemplation on reproduction, children, etc.

Giving children surgery for gender reassignment, giving them chemicals for chemical castration is child abuse, insane, and just plain wrong.   At a time when our population is not reproducing children, we need to get serious about reversing that trend, and not rely solely on folks coming here from foreign lands to bolster our population. 

In Russia, because women were not having children, Putin offered women $5,000 for the birth of every baby.  Depending on where you live in Russia, that can be the equivalent of 1-2 year's wages.  In the USA, we give a tax credit that in reality is not really worth that much in real dollars in your pocket.

Time to absolutely end the insanity of the liberal lunatics.
