The Crisis of Medicaid and Trans Healthcare
This chapter examines the loss of health insurance coverage impacting many under the Biden administration, particularly due to Medicaid unwinding procedures. It discusses the role of managed care in restricting access to gender-affirming care, highlighting systemic challenges and biases faced by trans individuals within the healthcare system. By linking historical policies to current healthcare access issues, the chapter calls for urgent reforms to address inequities in Medicaid and the broader implications of health capitalism.
