HHS Accuses Pediatric Clinics of Billing Fraud for Gender-Transition Procedures
A Department of Health and Human Services report alleges that pediatric gender programs billed nearly $120 million between 2019 and 2023. Officials claim hospitals engaged in billing fraud to secure insurance payments for treatments they call unnecessary. The report identifies over 5,500 surgical procedures and 8,500 hormonal interventions performed on minors during this period. Trump claimed medical institutions profited from the mutilation of children while disguising the practices as gender care. The administration has vowed to seek justice for affected children and end these medical practices. These findings follow a referral of dozens of healthcare providers to the Department of Justice for investigation.
