One of Colorado's largest health insurance companies has reversed itself and is now covering care for transgender patients.
Kelly Costello, 32, of Denver, received stunning news last week. One day after getting a formal notice that Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Colorado would not cover chest reconstruction surgery, the company abruptly overturned its decision.

Personal note: I need Anthem BC/BS of Minnesota to do the same. I know many of us want Insurance we pay for to cover more of our needs.
