Here is a quote from an article I just clipped off the web:
Consider a recent Chronicle article detailing San Francisco's role in providing insurance coverage for sex-change operations for its employees. Since 2001, when the city took the lead in providing such coverage, 67 major corporations decided to cover the surgeries, hormone therapy, short-term leave, medical visits and mental-health services for transsexual employees. The article concludes that, while emotional and psychological complications are still formidable for people who opt for surgery, today the largest hurdle is financial.
