SB 63: Anti Gender Affirming Care

This bill strips Kansas children of their right to seek gender affirming care and allows for civil action against providers who provide gender affirming care to young patients.

The language of this bill reads: "Enacting the Help Not Harm Act, restricting use of state funds to promote gender transitioning, prohibiting healthcare providers from providing gender transition care to children whose gender identity is inconsistent with the child's sex, authorizing a civil cause of action against healthcare providers for providing such treatments, requiring professional discipline against a healthcare provider who performs such treatment, prohibiting professional liability insurance from covering damages for healthcare providers that provide gender transition treatment to children and adding violation of the act to the definition of unprofessional conduct for physicians."
