disclaimer: IANAL, but was born with ovotesticular disorder and fight insurance regularly for care re:intersex conditons

there aren't exceptions made for intersex people in the states, as no third biological sex is currently recognized in the united states. if you're concerned about insurance cutting you off from medication, i would have a chat with your provider about how your medication is being billed (cpt codes etc). if you're taking it due to not producing enough hormones, for example, not having it would screw up your bones, so they could try that angle. in general i've had to fight a lot with billing, and i normally don't have my providers bill services related to intersex care as gender affirming care as i'm not transgender and my condition in openly visible. but ymmv based on the condition in question.

They didnt USED to refer to it as that but when I became nonbinary, they started to.

And the way Ive researched it seems to be that if youre anything other than male, my HRT is gender care.

BUT if youre male, seeking T to treat a medical condition, that can only occur in males, XXY in my case, it becomes magically, not GAC.
