    I think your wrong and doing transgender operations should not be covered unless it an organic problem, not a mental problem that they feel wrong about how they were endowed at birth with sex organs. I am told by my medical insurer that cosmetic surgery is not covered and even If I feel awful and neglected about my physical condition.

    Under federal rules, Medicaid must cover physician and hospital services for medically necessary care. That said, Medicaid can require you to get approval before the surgery takes place. Your best bet is to have the surgeon's office contact Medicaid to confirm that it will be covered.

    In recent years, Medicaid enrollment has surged across the U.S. and now, along with the companion Children?s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) program, cover more than 74 million people.

    really a big dilemma today, because he/she dont know what to say.....do it want peter to stay or go, really it is confusing you know....but not to sweat or not to worry, the surgeon is in no hurry......because if he cuts or fills, the taxpayers will PAY HIS BILLS.....he ought to put in both in plain sight, so anyway they go is always right......
