Read a story on KGW News Internet. It seems that the VA will start doing Sex Change Surgeries. I wonder if they will farm them out to a huge hospital next door? In 2007 I had to pay for my own.

The VA has an annual budget of $220.2 billion, an increase of 9.6 percent over that of FY 2019. It is the second largest government agency, trailing only the DOD.

Refund on what I spent?
Probably too much to hope that they'll refund what I spent?
I saw that,
if things ever go south and my family finds out just how big a "feminine side" I have, I may just take advantage of that.
Lets hope...
That the surgery is farmed out to a hospital specializing it in. We only have a VA clinic here and I hate to say it, but they are nothing more than glorified pill pushers, have to go to Iowa City for the VA hospital.
We the willing, led by the unsure. Have been doing so much with so little for so long,
We are now qualified to do anything with nothing.
The VA's Take...
This is from an article by Jeff Schogol on a military news website called Task and Purpose, dated June 21:
The process of making gender-confirmation surgery available to transgender veterans is expected to take roughly two years, said VA press secretary Terrence Hayes.
The VA estimates that no more than 4,000 transgender veterans would be interested in receiving gender-confirmation surgery, Hayes said. The costs for each surgery will vary depending on whether it is performed within or outside of the VA.
“Gender-affirming procedures have been proven effective at mitigating serious health conditions, including suicidality, substance abuse, and dysphoria,” Hayes said. “Updating this policy would allow VA to provide transgender and gender diverse Veterans with coordinated, medically necessary, transition-related surgical procedures.
“In addition, revising the medical benefits package would enable a safe, coordinated continuum of care that is veteran-centric and consistent with VA values of equity and respect for all veterans.”
