The Trump administration is considering eliminating federal funding for hospitals that provide gender-affirming care to minors. According to reports from The Wall Street Journal and other news outlets, the administration is exploring whether it has the authority to remove children's hospitals from Medicaid if they offer gender-related treatments, including gender-reassignment surgery, to patients under 18. This move would represent an escalation in the official scrutiny of medical facilities offering gender transition services to children and teenagers. The potential funding cuts are part of a broader examination of gender care for minors by the U.S. government under President Donald Trump's administration.
