Nebraska LB731 would extend the statute of limitations for malpractice claims related to gender-altering procedures and require insurance coverage.

Nebraska LB731, the Gender Transition Malpractice Accountability Act, would allow individuals who underwent gender-altering procedures as minors to file malpractice claims up to twelve years after the procedure, regardless of when the harm was discovered. It also requires health insurance policies that cover gender-altering procedures to cover related adverse consequences, including short-term and long-term side effects, and mandates disclosures to patients and their guardians about the risks and potential for regret.
