A newly released database of gender transition procedures on children reveals at least 418 patients in Illinois received such treatment since 2019. Billing to insurance companies totaled at least $644,000.

The Stop The Harm Database from the national group Do No Harm analyzed billing codes from insurance companies in regards to gender transition and youth. Nationwide, they found nearly 14,000 minors underwent sex change treatments. Of that, more than a third had surgeries and more than half had hormones or puberty blockers for a total of $120 million in submitted charges.
