AI-generated summary, reviewed by Better Utah staff.
Starting May 6, 2026, Utah's Public Employees' Benefit Insurance Program — the health insurance plan covering state government workers — is prohibited from covering hormone therapy or gender-affirming surgeries, with one narrow exception: employees already undergoing hormone treatment as of May 5, 2026 may continue that treatment under the same coverage terms until it ends, provided their physician certifies it is medically necessary. The bill also requires the program to cover detransition procedures at the same level it previously covered any gender-affirming care for that individual.
