I just learned that Representative Barbara Lee (D-CA) is sponsoring a new legislation (HR-584) that would provideĀ “for coverage of hormone replacement therapy for treatment of menopausal symptoms, and for coverage of an alternative therapy for hormone replacement therapy for such symptoms, under the Medicare and Medicaid Programs, group health plans and individual health insurance coverage, and other Federal health insurance programs.”
This is huge. I’m tracking it down to see if I can learn more. If you have any additional information, write to me at flashfree111@gmail.com.
Hi Flashfree,

Compounder – thanks! Can you repost the link? It doesn’t work!
