Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton reached a settlement with Texas Children's Hospital that will end the practice of using “gender-affirming care” on children while creating the very first clinic to assist those who wish to “detransition.” Paxton’s office hammered out a deal with Texas Children’s Hospital compelling it to create the detransition clinic, according to a press release. Attorney General Ken Paxton secured a historic settlement with Texas Children’s Hospital (“Texas Children’s”) that compels the creation of the country’s first-ever Detransition Clinic; requires the hospital to pay $10 million for billing Texas Medicaid for unallowable and illegal ‘gender-transition’ interventions, including by using false diagnosis codes; and compels the termination and revocation of privileges of multiple physicians. For the first five years, all services provided through the Detransition Clinic will be funded by Texas Children’s and be free of charge to patients. Texas Children's Hospital claimed they shut down their trans clinic in 2022.
