Just the News, The Daily Signal and The Daily Wire report that Texas Children's Hospital opened a detransition clinic on Monday. The clinic offers endocrinology, surgery, primary care and fertility counseling for patients up to age 21 who received gender transition care as minors, and the outlets say detransition care will be provided free for five years under the agreement. The opening follows a settlement in which the hospital agreed to pay $10 million or more to resolve allegations that it submitted false billings to public and private payors for gender transition care. The Daily Wire reports that the hospital disputed wrongdoing. Whistleblower Vanessa Sivadge announced the opening.
