Philadelphia children’s hospital cheated insurance codes to give ‘trans kids’ puberty blockers: DOJ

PM: The Department of Justice has revealed in a recent court filing that it has “evidence” raising questions of “fraudulent billing practices” at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. 

Authorities are probing whether doctors at the two Pennsylvania hospitals have been lying about diagnoses delivered to patients in an effort to get health insurance companies to cover off-label use of prescription drugs that stop puberty for children who claim to be transgender, per the Philadelphia Inquirer, which claimed that the drugs were to treat “gender dysphoria — a medical condition in which a person’s body does not match their gender identity.”

Lisa Hsiao, acting director of the DOJ’s Enforcement and Affirmative Litigation Branch, alleged in the filing that the DOJ suspects doctors are using “incorrect diagnosis and/or billing code” to prescribe drugs “because they know that certain insurance plans may not cover off-label prescription of puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones for gender-related treatment.”

In the case involving CHOP, the DOJ accused doctors of diagnosing minors with “central precocious puberty,” a condition in which children show signs of puberty at a younger age than normal, even though some of those diagnosed were well into puberty.  more

  1. Jesus, Lord, smite these foul hypocrites masquerading as healers, withdraw your gifts from them, rot the organs on them that they would deny Your children, castrate their livlihoods as they would castrate their patients, force them into a poverty of finances to match their poverty of spirit, let them know nothing but torment in this world and in the next, and may they soon be called to Your Judgement that they may damage no more of the creations You have wrought.

    They have betrayed their oaths, abused the skills You gifted them, said they know better than You how a childs body should be formed, and rebelled against Your order even as they impel others into madness and sin. They have dealt without mercy with those who came to them for healing, so may You reward them in like kind.
