Such work is push by Tommilynn Travis, who is a transgender person and works as a patient volunteer. She says even with the 2010 Affordable Care Act that banned discrimination in “healthcare on the basis of sex… the law was not explicit enough when it comes to trans people and their needs.” Many trans people cannot get their insurances to cover their medications or afford themselves. Some even have to make a choice between daily necessities or their medications. Therefore, people in general need to demand for equal rights in healthcare or otherwise and should find help open up small clinics or centers with support and began to help all the people in one’s community.
