An Open Letter

To: Sen. Sundareshan, Rep. Gutierrez, Gov. Hobbs, Rep. Mathis

From: A constituent in Tucson, AZ

May 17

The proposed legislation SB1511 raises significant concerns regarding patient privacy and access to healthcare. Mandating insurers to disclose private medical information to government agencies is a violation of patient confidentiality rights. Requiring coverage for detransition procedures undermines individuals' autonomy in seeking gender-affirming care based on their personal needs and decisions. Furthermore, compelling agencies to create public reports containing sensitive patient data jeopardizes privacy protections. This bill compromises fundamental healthcare rights and privacy standards. I urge you to reconsider these provisions that infringe on patient confidentiality and bodily autonomy in accessing appropriate medical treatments. Protecting patients' privacy and ensuring unrestricted access to affirming care should be priorities.
