I stand by my reporting.
Claims that HHS has "abandoned" federal rulemaking to establish a condition of participation in Medicare and Medicaid for hospitals are completely inaccurate and unfounded.View quoted post on X
The Department has not withdrawn or reversed course on the "Medicare and Medicaid Programs; Hospital Condition of Participation: Prohibiting Sex-Rejecting Procedures for Children" rule. HHS and CMS continue to follow statutory requirements by reviewing comments, and we intend to issue a final rule.
HHS remains committed to protecting children from potentially lifelong, irreversible, and harmful sex‑rejecting interventions.
