Growing number of hospitals stop sex-change operations after Trump order: List
2. Children’s National Hospital
Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C., published a “Message for Existing and New Patients” on the website for its Gender Development Program announcing that “In light of escalating legal and regulatory risks to Children’s National, our providers, and the families we serve, we will be discontinuing the prescription of gender-affirming medications.”
Children’s National noted that the policy change will take effect on Aug. 30.
Children’s National had previously announced a pause in the prescription of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to trans-identified youth in late January, shortly after the publication of Trump’s executive order.
