It takes only 22 minutes to get approved for castration

Matt Walsh of the Daily Wire is one of the top 2 or 3 activists fighting gender ideology and “gender-affirming care” for children.

He exposed Vanderbilt’s program to sterilize and mutilate children to increase profits, and he is now exposing two online gender “care” medical practices that admit that they will lie to hospitals and insurance companies to smooth the way for people to get castrations and other surgeries.

Walsh’s investigation focused on two telemedicine companies–both backed by big Wall Street money–that will provide diagnoses and letters that people can use to get “gender-affirming surgeries.” Diagnoses and recommendations can be provided with one phone call, and form letters will be sent to doctors confirming the need for surgeries.

The companies are Folx and Plume.

The whole setup amounts first of all to an insurance scam, with a side order of sterilization and bodily mutilation on the side.

Some of the nation’s largest transgender “health care” providers are rubber-stamping approvals for life-altering sex-change procedures — and even falsifying health information about patients — so insurance companies will cover the medical expenses, Daily Wire host Matt Walsh revealed in a tweet thread Wednesday.

In an undercover investigation, Walsh and his team discovered how easy it is to get approved for sex-change surgery when one of the host’s producers got a thumbs up for an orchiectomy — a procedure to remove testicles — after just a 22-minute virtual appointment with Plume, the largest transgender health care provider in the U.S. 

Walsh’s producer Gregg Re got scheduled for a video call with Plume after providing a fake name on an intake form. Re made it clear that he had not been experiencing gender dysphoria for six months or more, he mispronounced the name of the surgery he wanted, and he said he didn’t know what effect the surgery would have on him. Yet, Plume’s nurse practitioner told Re “she wanted to write the most ‘solid’ letter possible to justify surgery,” Walsh explained.

It is comforting to see that these companies are quite open about the intent of their service. Just as students can contract a person or company to produce an essay for college so that the student can slap his name on it–plagiarism for cash–now Wall Street is backing insurance fraud and gender surgery as a big business opportunity, compassion, moral, or basic business ethics be damned.

There is little doubt that a compassionate care provider can provide gold-standard care to a patient based on a 22-minute video call. As we know, life-saving procedures such as getting castrated are so obviously necessary in all cases that it requires little thought or individual attention.

Both companies’ selling points are that they use WPATH guidelines to make their diagnoses and approve surgeries, but it appears neither actually uses the guidelines to make their “diagnoses.” Their business model is to provide what the customer wants, regardless of their actual medical status or condition. Patients can actually answer questions on a survey that don’t match WPATH guidelines, but that is irrelevant to the diagnoses. Plume even explains that they will misdiagnose a patient in order to present the most compelling case to an insurance company.

As Ilhan Omar would say, “It’s all about the Benjamins.” There is big money to be made here, and Wall Street wants a piece of the pie.

Walsh and his team dug deeper into how Plume and Folx have expanded across the U.S. with Plume reaching people in 41 states and Folx present in 47 states.

“The answer is that there’s big money behind this,” Walsh said. “Plume and Folx raised more than $45 million last year. [Craft Ventures] just led Plume’s $14 million fundraising round. Is [Craft general partner David Sacks] aware this is going on?”

With Plume and Folx operating in most of the U.S., The Daily Wire host asked if medical insurance companies were aware that the transgender medical providers were sending letters of recommendation “based on obviously false information.”

I’m pretty sure nobody in the insurance industry nor the medical profession actually cares about the fraud. Insurance companies would get far more grief denying the “care,” and will just raise their rates to cover the new expenses. Their profits suffer not at all, and may actually increase as they are skimming off a larger base of insurance premiums.

There is an unholy alliance between the alphabet ideologists, the cultural/political elite, and corporate America pushing this evil upon America.

What will it take to get it to stop? A massive series of scandals.

This one won’t be enough. Ultimately it will be the detransitioners telling their stories that will slow this madness.

Unfortunately, that could take years.
