LC 1818 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Provide for private right of action for injuries caused by certain medical interventions to treat gender dysphoria

This bill creates a private legal right for individuals who have undergone specific medical treatments related to gender dysphoria to sue health care providers if they suffer injuries from those treatments. It applies to procedures such as hormone therapy, puberty blockers, and various surgical interventions provided to patients who believe their gender does not match their biological sex. The law establishes a 25-year statute of limitations for filing claims and allows for various types of damages including compensation for pain, suffering, and lost income. It explicitly excludes patients with medically verifiable disorders of sex development from these provisions and defines gender based on psychological and social aspects while defining female and male based on biological characteristics.
