Starting July 1st 2015, Nevada state employees and their covered family members will have health coverage for transgender-related procedures and other medical expenses including mental health, hormone replacement therapy, and sex reassignment surgery. This change came last November as a result of Nevada's Public Employee Benefits Program board voting to remove language from their health insurance plans that specifically excluded therapy for gender dysphoria.
