insurance for the mtf transwoman...

[mickie88]

ok.. i think i read here somewhere that there was a way for the gyno's/endo's and gp's to prescribe hrt for us without using specifically hormone replacement therapy or gid as a diagnosis if your carrier has you listed as male. i have found a doctor near me who will NOT START hrt but WILL CONTINUE it once it has begun, but she says my carrier will not pay if the diagnosis is a female one and i know they have me listed as male. can anyone refresh my memory with correct terminology for them to use?

thanks in advance...
