A California judge ordered Rady Children’s Hospital to keep offering gender-affirming care to minors, rejecting federal funding threats as speculative.
A California judge has ruled that Rady Children’s Hospital must continue providing gender-affirming care, including hormone therapy and puberty blockers, to patients under 19, rejecting the hospital’s claim that federal threats to cut Medicaid and Medicare funding justified halting services.
The judge found the risk of funding loss was speculative and not immediate, noting a related federal case in Oregon is pending, with a hearing set for March 19.
While surgeries like mastectomies are excluded, the court emphasized the immediate harm to transgender youth if care is suspended.
A preliminary injunction hearing is scheduled for next month, with a 24-hour emergency hearing required if a termination notice is issued.
