The largest children’s hospital in the United States will create the country’s first “detransition clinic” to undo gender-affirming treatments for transgender youth and fire five doctors who performed the procedures to settle a joint investigation by the state and President Trump’s administration. The US Justice Department and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Republican, said in separate announcements that Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston would also pay $10 million for allegedly billing the state’s Medicaid program for gender-affirming treatment prohibited by state law. Paxton’s office said the settlement was the result of a years-long investigation into the 1,000-bed hospital’s practices, including allegedly using false billing codes when seeking Medicaid reimbursements.
