State Health Insurance Laws and Guidance

Many states prohibit health insurance plans from denying coverage for health care simply because it is transgender-related. In most cases, this means that explicit exclusions for transgender health care are prohibited in these jurisdictions.

These protections will not apply to all health plans in a given state. See our Trans Health Insurance Tutorial section on Understanding Your Plan for more details.
