NY - Medicaid to Cover Gender Reassignment Surgery

Surprised this hasn't been posted earlier since it's a few days old.

In the further progression of me losing respect for my state's governor, he reveals this plan:

Quote:Quote:

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Gov. Andrew Cuomo moved Wednesday to provide Medicaid support for hormone therapy and gender reassignment surgery, among other health care services, for transgender people.

Continuing his legacy as an advocate for the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community, Cuomo issued new state rules to have taxpayers pick up the tab for low-income New Yorkers, CBS2’s Marcia Kramer reported. Under the proposal, gender reassignment surgery will be available for people who are a minimum age of 18 or 21, depending on circumstances, and will require a referral from a doctor.

“New York has always been a progressive leader and ensuring that all New Yorkers — regardless of gender identity — are treated fairly will continue this legacy,” Cuomo said in a news release. “This new regulation will guarantee transgender New Yorkers access to Medicaid-funded care, which is critical to safeguarding the principle of equal treatment. I am proud that the State is taking this step and continuing to lead the fight on transgender rights.”

Before the funding for surgery will be made available, patients will have to have received hormone therapy, have lived as a member of the other gender for at least a year and have consulted with a mental health professional.

“Medical evidence supports gender reassignment surgery as a safe and effective treatment for gender dysphoria,” acting Health Commissioner Dr. Howard Zucker said in the news release. “This modernization of our Medicaid payment coverage brings New York State in alignment with Medicare policy and improves the quality of life for New Yorkers whose gender identity is not the gender with which they were born.”

There will be a 45-day public comment period on the proposed legislation.

“I think this is a critical step that the governor took,” said Councilman Corey Johnson, D-Manhattan, a longtime activist for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

“This is not cosmetic in any way,” he added. “This is about their identity and getting health care that is meaningful and real for them.”

Doctors say the needs of the transgender community are both physical and psychological.

“There’s absolutely a medical need to correct it because these patients experiment tremendous upheaval,” said Dr. Daniel Yadegar, a Manhattan cardiologist.

State officials estimate it will cost $6.7 million to pay for the medical services needed by transgender New Yorkers.

Not everyone agrees with the expenditure.

“Medicaid is designed for the needy, for the dispossessed, for the destitute,” said Bill Donohue of the Catholic League. “It’s not meant for middle-class people and upper-middle-class people who don’t like the fact that they’re a man or woman. … This is an abuse of Medicaid.”

“They should be paying for it out of their own pocket,” said George Brown, of Midtown. “It’s not a responsibility for the state of New York.”

Other New Yorkers, however, supported the move.

“I think it’s probably a good idea because why would you put yourself through that unless you really had to?” said Sue Kort, of Midtown. “

California, Massachusetts, Oregon, Vermont and Washington D.C. also cover transgender health care through their Medicaid programs.

How many people these days completely take themselves out of the game? Between transgendered people, gay people, mgtow, incels, and normal single people who just choose not to have kids... A huge chunk of the population is just choosing to never reproduce....

I wonder if a chick could loophole this to get fake tits or a man to get dick enlargement? Ie. a girl says "I have gender dysphoria that I think that I am a woman but my body isn't 'womanly' enough...my small boobs cause me gender issues that make me think maybe I'm not a woman? I need fake boobs to resolve that issue and increase my gender confidence...and no it has nothing to do with my career as a porn star, stripper or general gold digger."

Nice try, but the SJWs and feminists dealing with this will try to convince the patient that changing sex is the way to go.

Taxes paying for sex reassignment surgery?

If they want policy on transsexuals to have a net benefit to society, they should use that money to provide psychiatric help and put them on suicide watch.

How long do you imagine it will be before we look back on this as the tragedy that it is, insane people surgically mutilating themselves with state support?

50 years, 100 years?

I talk to my uni students in China about transgender issues like this and the whole room busts out laughing. They cant believe it, they think Im making it up until we read some articles from the NYtimes.

Much of the world thinks this is as stupid as we RVF do.

I think transgender will be "normalized" soon, just like gays. The bigger question is: what is next? World War Gay And World War Tranny won. World War Beastility? Furry? Multiple wives?

Dunno what fringe minority will be the next "in-thing" with the cool kids but I'm counting on the left to try to further break down gender barriers by pushing for the abolishment of opposite sex bathrooms and single sex organizations like the girl/boy scouts.

And if you think this is the end of World Wars Gay and Tranny, then you got another thing coming. Those are perpetual revolutions that'll only get more and more bizarre as time goes on.

I went down the SJW rabbit hole to find out how crazy they can be. Some of them will want to normalise otherkin: humans who think they are some other creature. Examples include dragonkin (people who think they are actually a dragon), sharkkin (people who think they are actually a shark), and wolfkin (people who think they are actually a wolf).

Here's a Tumblr dedicated to Otherkin Fashion.

Suggested nail paint for someone who thinks they are actually a black cat:

Scarf for someone who thinks they are actually an owl:

Shoes for someone who thinks they are actually a jellyfish:

If you want to hurt an otherkin's feelings, just say this:

Of course, the otherkin community is so ridiculous that it attracts trolls:

There's a Reddit group for laughing at the Otherkin: http://www.reddit.com/r/OtherkinInAction/

Of course at the moment nearly everyone will think otherkin are insane, but perhaps in fifty years the taxpayers will be paying for animal reassignment surgery. [Image: dodgy.gif]

If you really need to go blue pill and marry, multiple wives should be the way to go. Don't talk down on that one.

No, they recruit.

Doubt it, in today's society it'd probably be multiple husbands.

I always think about otherkin when I hear about kids having sex changes. My five-year-old nephew think he's a dog but my sister isn't throwing down for some surgery.

I do think that most people know trannies are crazy, they just know they'll be lynched by the pc police if they say it out loud. I've never heard anything good about trannies in a private conversation.

And obviously someone who lops off their dick and calls themselves a chick isn't right in the head.

How about using this money to fix the roads or upgrade the subway? New York Subway is the filthiest one I've seen, and I've seen many.

How about building more bridges and tunnels across the Hudson and the East river? But no, that's not a priority, they're going to pay perverts for expensive surgeries instead. Fuck'em.

People are also moving from New York to Tennessee and locals dislike them. The overheard new yoik accent often causes eye rolls.
