"The Kroger Co. apparently has agreed to extend transgender health benefits to employees covered under the company insurance plan with Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, according to a Facebook posting from a Kroger worker."
Great news for trans Kroger employees. Perhaps this will light the fire under other hold-out companies and universal trans-healthcare will one day be a reality. Granted it doesn't cover all employees but each step forward is a step forward.
Its a welcomed step , but Kroger is 75% union
