What is politically advantageous for this administration far outweighs what is best for individuals or society as a whole. Thus, with this view point, every health insurer offering plans through state-run Obamacare or Healthcare.gov now must cover more health procedures that transgenders desires.
In the past, several health insurance plans have categorically excluded health care related to transitioning between genders, often on the grounds that such procedures are often cosmetic, not medically necessary, and elective in nature. Now, such categorical bans will be disallowed, and insurers will have to cover many of the procedures.
An article in the WSJ, in June, reported that sexual reassignment was not the best for individuals who had undergone the surgery. It would seem to me that someone in the White House would have read the article – the research, the medical journals, prior to expanding Obamacare coverage in this area.
It now appears that our long-ago decision was a wise one. A 2011 study at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden produced the most illuminating results yet regarding the transgendered, evidence that should give advocates pause. The long-term study—up to 30 years—followed 324 people who had sex-reassignment surgery. The study revealed that beginning about 10 years after having the surgery, the transgendered began to experience increasing mental difficulties. Most shockingly, their suicide mortality rose almost 20-fold above the comparable nontransgender population.
This surgery does not follow the mandate of “do no harm”, but when you have a President out to make a name for himself, the only mandate is “Self”. Political agendas far outweigh what is best for society and individuals and Obama, again and again, proves this point.
The language of the expansion states:
It declares that insurers are prohibited from engaging in discrimination not only on the basis of sex, but also on the basis of gender identity.

Should you pay for a 14-year-old girl who has so much to learn about the world to be sexually reassigned?
Hey, he’s allowing Bergdahl, the traitor to have his sex change on the taxpayer’s dime.
