Hi everyone. I haven't been on for awhile, but I have a question about discrimination and legal rights that I'm wondering if anyone can answer.
If a company is headquartered in a state that does not bar health insurance discrimination against transgender people, but one of its main divisions is located in a state that does bar health insurance discrimination against transgender people, can they be mandated to cover hormones and GRS?
Here's the story: My dad (whom I'm still covered under for a couple more years) works at a company headquartered here in the US in Indiana. One of the company's major divisions is in Oregon. The company insures through Aetna, which has policies that mandate trans coverage, but the company itself doesn't cover trans stuff. I'm not sure if it covers any other sexual/hormonal related conditions.
I know that suing is a big step, and I'm going to look into taking with HR first, since I've interned there before. But, I'm just wondering if anyone knows what the law is regarding a multi-state company. Thanks for the help
