I was reading a blog today, and with the number of universities providing healthcare and costs for transgender healthcare, some including sex reassignment surgery, for students the person said they planned to pick their graduate school primarily to get free sex reassignment surgery.
I wonder if universities thought about this when they added this coverage. And how do they assess students who knowing apply for admission to the university for the transgender healthcare and even surgery? Or if the student doesn't but later admits they were in transition when they applied?
Don't you think it's a little disingenuous of the student? To pay tuition for the minimum period to get a $20,000+ surgery paid by the university?
I'm not against it. I'm for all health insurance companies covering in and post transition care, especially medically necessary surgeries as recommended by all the medical organizations. It's not only the fair thing to do, it's the right thing and long overdue.
I just thought this was interesting.
