Providers of gender transition care to minors would be liable for detransition costs and injuries

A health care professional or physician who provides a minor with a gender transition procedure would be strictly and personally liable for all costs of later detransition procedures the minor seeks. This applies to detransition procedures sought within 25 years after the gender transition procedure begins. A person who has a detransition procedure may sue before turning 26 for the real value of the costs, any other appropriate relief, and attorney fees and costs. The costs must be sought within 25 years after the procedure begins, and a lawsuit must be filed before the person turns 26.

A provider would be strictly liable to the minor for any injury caused by the treatment or its aftereffects, including a later detransition procedure. Injury includes physical, psychological, emotional, or physiological harm that occurs within 25 years after the procedure. The injured person or their legal guardian may seek declaratory or injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorney fees and costs, and other relief. Compensatory damages include pain and suffering, loss of reputation, loss of income, and loss of consortium, including the loss of the expectation of sharing parenthood. A lawsuit must be filed within eight years after the person's 18th birthday, or within four years after the person discovers both the injury and its link to the treatment, whichever is later.

A provider could not ask a patient to sign a waiver of the liability. This applies to health care professionals and physicians who provide gender transition procedures to minors. Any waiver is against public policy and is null and void.
