Have you been discriminated against when seeking medial care? When does a health care professional's transphobia rise to the level of discrimination?

With the nation's attention on health care reform, Gender Blender is examining gender discrimination in health care. Women face unfair and discriminatory policies that charge women more than men and consider reproductive health elective and therefore not covered by insurance. Meanwhile, transgender individuals have faced all kinds of discrimination including medical professionals actually refusing trans individuals medical care.

Hosts Jacob Anderson-Minshall and Laura Calvo speak with Pauline Park, the co-founder and chair of New York Association for Gender Rights Advocacy (NYAGRA); Lisa Codispoti, a Senior Advisor on the Health and Reproductive Rights team at the National Women’s Law Center and several other guests.
