As the news broke on this story yesterday, I was at the San Diego VA Medical Center's Dental Clinic. I was having a root canal on a molar. My healthcare provider is the Veterans Healthcare Administration; the appropriateness of my healthcare experience at the VA Medical Centers depends a great deal on which VA Medical Center I receive my healthcare from.

Nationwide, there hasn't been a standardized policy for disabled, transgender veterans' healthcare at VA Medial Centers.

Well, that's changed as of Thursday, June 9, 2011, and announced on Friday.
