Giude
on administrative and technical insurance issues
The guide below is intended for health professionals who accompany (adult) clients during gender reassignment. It provides a holistic overview of insurance and administrative issues as well as useful recommendations and advice on gender reassignment.
With kind permission of Checkpoint Zurich; the original French document is by Sylvan Berrut and Yannick Forney of Pôle Trans des Checkpoint Vaud of the PROFA Foundation. The notation with a gender star (“*”) also includes persons who do not find themselves in a binary gender identity. The use of gender-neutral plural forms and pronouns such as “xier” or “sier” follows the same logic.
