I actually figured that the coverage for gender affirming care is one of the least awful things about UHC.
Only if they actually cover it. If they send you through a pinball machine of denials and rejections, its just a new way of tormenting trans people.
Edit: actually hold on, my benefits guide definitely used to say something about them paying for travel to a safe state for care and even some hotel nights being covered, but I don’t see that anymore…
Red States have been tightening the noose on pregnant women, both explicitly and implicitly. So its likely the UHC folks chickened out and pulled the language for fear of provoking a state AG in Texas, Missouri, or Florida.
