Legislation which mandates insurance companies that sell policies including coverage for medical gender transition procedures or services must also include coverage for de-transitioning passed on the Senate floor Monday afternoon.
SB0676 by Sen. Brent Taylor (R-Memphis-District 31) also requires gender clinics and insurance entities to report information regarding de-transition procedures to the Tennessee Department of Health.
Taylor reiterated the bill does not violate any HIPPA laws and that all information to be reported regarding de-transitioners would be in the form of clinical data with nothing identifiable back to specific individuals or providers.
