Payers, Providers, and Patients – Oh My!: The Legal Storm Around Gender-Affirming Care
Hosts Megan Beaver and Savanna Williams talk to Alice Hall-Partyka and Tai Williams about the rapidly evolving legal and regulatory landscape surrounding gender-affirming care. The conversation covers the federal Medicaid and CHIP rule that took effect October 13, 2026, which prohibits the use of federal matching funds for sex-rejecting procedures provided to minors, the varying state responses to that rule, and an ongoing legal challenge filed by Illinois and a coalition of states in the District of Massachusetts. The episode also addresses the Department of Justice’s wave of False Claims Act settlements with major hospital systems, FTC and state attorney general actions against medical professional societies, and key takeaways for health plans, providers, and their counsel navigating this shifting enforcement environment.
