Do No Harm in Medicaid Act

This bill prohibits federal Medicaid payment for specified gender transition procedures for individuals under the age of 18.

The bill excludes procedures that are provided to an individual under the age of 18 with the consent of a parent or legal guardian and that are intended to (1) rectify early puberty, genetic disorders, or chromosomal abnormalities; (2) reverse prior gender transition procedures; or (3) prevent imminent death or impairment of a major bodily function.
