Trump Admin Unloads on Fraudulent Practices Giving Cover to 'Gender Medicine'—Why It Matters
New report shows how doctors and hospitals profited from predatory practices impacting children.
President Donald Trump's Health and Human Services Department (HHS) today released a bombshell report exposing devious "insurance coding practices" that enabled the medical establishment to put vulnerable children in jeopardy. The report takes aim against what HHS describes as "perverse financial incentives" and a key provision of "sex-rejecting procedures for minors."
The report, titled "Wolves in White Coats: How Doctors and Hospitals Pushed and Profited from the Fraud of Gender Medicine," was released in tandem with a shortform documentary that highlighted the department's key findings while also giving victims a platform to tell their stories.
HHS from a vast array of sources including guidance attached to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Department of Justice (DOJ) investigations, peer-reviewed scientific literature, hospital records, whistleblower testimony, nationwide insurance claims analyses, along with interviews done with patients and parents. The HHS report analyzes nationwide "claims data" from 2015 to 2025 and cites about $50 million insurance claims for puberty blockers that are billed using an endocrine disorder diagnostic code.
Why it Matters
- There are more than 225 hospitals and health systems nationwide that have established pediatric gender programs nationwide where children could be vulnerable.
- As HHS Sec. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says in a press release, "Doctors and hospitals must put children's health ahead of ideology and financial gain. This report identifies troubling billing practices that demand scrutiny. HHS will follow the evidence, protect taxpayers, and hold accountable anyone who broke the law or violated the trust of patients and families. Under President Trump's leadership, we are restoring transparency and integrity to American medicine."
- Deceitful billing practices could obscure the kind of care that is actually being provided while putting American taxpayers on the book to pay for sex rejecting procedures that do permanent harm.
How We Fix It for Good
- HHS is calling on federal and state agencies to review coding and billing practices while also bolstering the oversight of claims submitted to public health programs.
- Vice President JD Vance and Sec. Kennedy referred those hospitals and clinics identified in the report to the Department of Justice and the HHS Office of Inspector General to determine if any violations of federal law have taken place.
- Organizations like World Professional Association for Transgender Health, the Endocrine Society, the American Psychological Association, and the American Academy of Pediatrics should all be held accountable for promoting pediatric sex-rejecting interventions.
