Children’s Hospital GME Support Reauthorization Act of 2023
This bill reauthorizes federal funding for graduate medical education (GME) programs at children's hospitals through fiscal year 2028. It prohibits payments to any children's hospital that provided gender-affirming care to minors during the previous fiscal year (with a special rule for 2024 payments covering July-September 2023). The bill defines "gender-affirming care" as specific medical treatments like surgeries or puberty-blocking medications for gender transition, but excludes care for certain medical conditions or gender dysphoria treatment not classified as such. This directly affects hospitals receiving GME funding that serve minors, potentially impacting their federal support if they provided the specified care. The policy change modifies existing funding rules without altering broader healthcare access for minors.
