Patient keeps asking about a letter from me for gender affirming surgery
County clinic M2F patient who wants to have gender affirming surgery wants a letter from me
that she is stable to have surgery. She said that the insurance company is asking for a letter from me
stating she is mentally sound and competent to under go the procedure. I thought psychiatrists
who usually work with surgeons to do these pre-op evaluations. Is this something psychiatrists
working in a county mental health department usually do?
