My policy covers surgery now. It wasn't covered a couple years ago when I checked.

That is good for you - Yay!

I don't want to turn this into a political statement but your health insurer is going against the grain of the Trump administration in its effort to stop everything LGB...T, and especially trans.

If you are considering surgery, get it done as soon as possible.

If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a thing as war. If the Government is inefficient, top-heavy, and tax-mad, better it is all those than that people worry over it. Peace, Montag.

Well congratulations on that new opportunity!

As I have detailed with my own experience it is a potentially very life altering thing that hits in ways that one can't always predict. But I am so happy I did it even if dilation is a pain, having to pee in the woods or finding a way to pee in a cup is a much harder or having to have gyno exams if you are "active". But there is a lot of good too. I wish you luck in your own journey!

That's good, another obstacle out of the way. 

It got me thinking and I checked if my insurer covered reassignment surgery and all the rest of the costs. Indeed they do but only in recent years. Same with the other insurers here in Ireland. The health service also pays for surgery but I imagine the waiting time is considerably longer. 

So in the unlikely event I ever have a chance of fulfilling my dream. Then I am covered.
