Title: Transgender Health Insurance Coverage - Texas
Post by: Yukari-sensei on February 14, 2015, 01:32:46 AM
Does anyone know of any plan on the marketplace that covers at least HRT in Texas?

I rejected the plan offered at work due to very bold exclusions. Most plans seem to exclude any form of transgender related care...

I don't have an answer for you but I'll be very interested in any answers you get.  This is one of the reasons I'm hoping for the ability to buy health insurance across state lines.

I wish I did know as well. I'm currently paying out of pocket for everything.

Still researching. Nothing so far, short of getting hired full-time at a progressive minded company...

This sorta underscores that I can't realistically resume transition till I get R.N. after my name...

And now I am wondering how receptive Texas Board of Nursing will be... :-\
