Lack of Access to Trans-Related Healthcare

Today's episode was originally a patron exclusive. To support the show and get more episodes like this, become a patron at www.patreon.com/deathpanelpod Bea and Jules discuss “managed care,” a seemingly innocuous term for a guiding principle in contemporary US healthcare that structures and incentivizes medical rationing and austerity. We also discuss how the use of managed care in state Medicaid programs leads to widespread denials for trans care, and tease Jules’ new book, “A Short History of Trans Misogyny,” coming in January from Verso.
